Clinical Trial Summary

Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is one of the main treatments for COPD, but its benefits are transient. Indeed, patients generally return to their initial state of health within 6 months to 1 year after the PR stay. To increase long-term effectiveness, several recent studies have experimented with maintenance PR programmes (M-PRPs), orchestrated by a care manager. The care manager's mission is to help the patient maintain the long-term benefits of their stay by adopting health-promoting behaviors and anticipating the risks of dropping out. To do this, it has IT tools allowing it to monitor the patient remotely, such as a digital monitoring solution (educational sheets, shared calendar, videoconferencing tool, etc.) and connected objects (scales, blood pressure monitor, etc.). He/She remains in contact with the patient and discussion times are regularly scheduled (once or several times per month). It also relies on the multidisciplinary team of the PR center to guide the patient when needs are identified. This mode of support based on the emergence of a new profession seems promising because it responds to a real need shared by patients, namely the need to be supported beyond the temporary bubble of the PR stay, while relying on telecommunications tools in order to be part of an economically reasoned approach. As the experiments have not yet been completed, the effectiveness and efficiency data (cost-economic ratio) are not yet known. However, beyond these highly anticipated quantitative results, these experiments do not plan to analyze this new mode of support on a qualitative side. However, even if they prove favorable, the quantitative results will in no way predict the success of the deployment of this type of support on a large scale. Taking into account the opinions of users, but also the difficulties encountered or potential points of improvement are all important data to take into account in order to successfully implement this new profession outside the framework and controlled context of the experimentation. Thus, we wish to conduct a qualitative study with feedback from patients participating in ongoing healthcare professional experiments, on the new profession of care manager. We also want to interview their informal caregivers and health professionals practicing this new profession.
