Remote Spirometry, Education, and Action for COPD Diagnosis and Management in Rural and Medically Underserved Settings in South Carolina: Protocol for an Observational Feasibility Study
An mHealth intervention using Bluetooth-enabled remote portable spirometry is a potential solution to expanding healthcare access and improving outcomes in under-resourced populations at risk for increased morbidity and mortality. This study will evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of mHealth and remote monitoring, including symptom reporting among at-risk under-resourced adults with COPD.
