Summary

This study is an open-label, prospective, single-centre, randomized controlled trial, containing both a quantitative and a qualitative component and using a mixed-methods design. The study evaluates the impact of Cloud Dx kit, a device that can allows patients to monitor and manage Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) at their home. The study evaluates whether using Cloud Dx improves patients' COPD symptoms, ability to manage COPD, and quality of life.

It is anticipated that there will be 123 participants enrolled in this study across two experimental arms and one control arm. Participants will be in the study for 6 months and the study will run for 1 year a Markham-Stouffville Hospital. The primary outcome is the participants' self-management and activation which will be measured using The Partners in Health (PIH) scale, a validated scale measuring the current status of self-management, with items on knowledge of the condition and skills to monitor and respond to symptoms.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Cloud Dx Kit with self-monitoring

Patients in this group will be recording their vitals and symptoms with the Cloud DX platform everyday and will be provided with an action-plan that instructs them on what to do in response to their readings.

DEVICE

Cloud Dx Kit with remote-monitoring

* Patients in this group will be recording their vitals and symptoms with the Cloud DX platform everyday and will be provided with an action-plan that instructs them on what to do in response to their readings. * A respiratory therapist (RT) will be monitoring asynchronously patient vitals and contacting them when their vitals exceed pre-determined thresholds. * The RT will also check on patients once a week irrespective of the value of the vitals.
