Feedback on the New Profession of Care Manager in Maintenance Pulmonary Rehabilitation Programmes
Feedback From Patients, Informal Caregivers and Healthcare Professionals on the New Profession of Care Manager in Maintenance Pulmonary Rehabilitation Programmes: a Qualitative Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Apr 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is one of the main treatments for COPD, but its benefits are transient. 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. He/She remains in contact with the patient and discussion times are regularly scheduled; It also relies on the multidisciplinary team of the PR center to guide the patient when needs are identified. 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. 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. Consequently, we aim 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.
