CENTR(AR): Lungs Moving
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 Jan 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Chronic Respiratory Diseases (CRDs) are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, ranking as the third leading cause of death worldwide. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a fundamental evidence-based intervention for the management of a variety of CRDs, such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs). However, the benefits of PR tend to decline over time and there is currently no strong evidence that patients translate those benefits into a more active lifestyle. There is an urgent need for evidence-based interventions to promote physical activity (PA) participation, whilst maintaining PR positive effects in the long-term. Community-based PA interventions adjusted to the local context, as well as patients' needs and preferences, might be a key strategy to meet this target. CENTR(AR) will be a sustainable response to support healthy lifestyles and enhance long-term PR benefits, by providing access to PR within Primary Healthcare Centres (PHC), followed by the inclusion in a community-based PA program, which embraces urban facilities and available resources.
