[Efficacy of tele-rehabilitation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review]. An Sist Sanit Navar. 2022 Jun 30;45(2):e0999. Spanishhttp://hdl.handle.net/10668/21784The COVID-19 pandemic has required the use of new technologies to carry out rehabilitation sessions for COP D remotely. The aim of this systematic review was to analyse the available evidence on the efficacy of telerehabilitation in COPD patients. PubMed, WOS, PEDro and Cochrane databases were consulted. The systematic review included nine clinical trials, 55.5% of which display good methodological quality. The most commonly used rehabilitation methods were applications or software for real-time video-calls, visualisation of exercises and recording progress. TR was as effective as outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation, with greater benefits in functional capacity, self-efficacy, mental health, exacerbations and emergency care visits, offering a cost-effective option with high patient satisfaction. The small number of studies and the variety of rehabilitation methods examined limit the value of the evidence obtained.esAttribution-ShareAlike 4.0 Internationalhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/TelemedicinaFisioterapiaEnfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónicaTelerehabilitationTelemedicinePhysiotherapyChronic obstructive pulmonary diseaseCOVID-19HumansPandemicsPulmonary disease, chronic obstructiveQuality of lifeTelerehabilitationresearch article35786702open accessCalidad de vidaEnfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónicaPandemiasTelerrehabilitación10.23938/ASSN.09992340-3527https://doi.org/10.23938/assn.0999
