Pulmonary rehabilitation for pulmonary hypertension in high-altitude areas: a mixed-methods study of medical staff’s perspectives

Pulmonary rehabilitation for PH in high-altitude areas exhibits low adoption rates and poor standardization based on medical staff reports, facing a complex barrier system. There is a need to establish an integrated solution centered on high-altitude guidelines, supported by digital technology, and grounded in policy guarantees to facilitate a shift from the current fragmented, experience-based practice toward standardized and systematic services.
