ABSTRACT
S22 Table 1Number of patients achieving minimal clinically important differences in CRQ and HADS following Virtual Pulmonary Rehabilitation (VPR) or Face-to-Face pulmonary rehabilitation (VPR)Outcomes VPR n (%) F2F n (%) p value (Chi-square test) CRQ-Dyspnoea 32 (54) 30 (55) 0.974 CRQ-Fatigue 30 (50) 34 (62) 0.203 CRQ-Emotion 23 (38) 29 (53) 0.121 CRQ-Mastery 24 (40) 34 (62) 0.019 HADS-Anxiety 17 (33) 24 (44) 0.214 HADS-Depression 12 (23) 27 (50) 0.004 ConclusionsF2F PR provided larger improvements in outcomes and a greater number of COPD patients achieving meaningful improvements in mastery and depression. However, the number of patients achieving clinically meaningful improvements in dyspnoea, fatigue, emotional function and anxiety with VPR demonstrates the success of transitioning to this model during the pandemic and supports the potential use of such alternative delivery models to increase access to PR.
