Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Introduction

Home telehealth for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) usually emphasizes remote monitoring.  Patients send their providers regular health updates, including symptom reports and measurements of lung function.  The feedback that they receive assists them in determining how to adjust their medication and daily activity.  The provider may also contact the patient if a COPD exacerbation appears imminent.
