Community-based pulmonary rehabilitation for post-TB lung disease – a programmatic intervention
The 12-week course of PR had a positive effect on people's health and well-being, and it is now integrated into the National TB strategy in Malawi. The benefits of such programs are highly significant for the individual and the broader community. We strongly encourage other countries to implement similar PR programs.
