Official title
Post-REcovery LIbEration From Oxygen in Exacerbated COPD (RELIEF)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators want to decrease inappropriate oxygen use for patients with COPD. The investigators are testing a new program that will stop oxygen prescriptions for patients that no longer need it and will instead provide them with training in skills that have been shown to help patients breathe better. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the intervention program or usual care. After 12 weeks the investigators will determine if the program helped stop unnecessary oxygen prescription. The investigators will also determine if health status, distance walked during six minutes, and symptoms of breathlessness after walking are different between participants who received the program and those who did not. The investigators will meet with participating patients and their providers after the study is complete to find out how they feel about this program and if it would be possible to put this change into practice.
