About

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ability of the Bora Care remote monitoring solution to detect early acute exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

Full description

Worldwide, COPD has been increasing for 20 years with nearly 300 million patients, i.e. 4 to 10% of the adult population (7.5% in France). According to the WHO, it is now the fourth leading cause of death in the world.

Acute exacerbations of COPD (worsening of symptoms requiring an increase in treatment) represent frequent events in the course of the disease and the consequences are significant for the patient in terms of vital prognosis, deterioration of respiratory function, impact on quality life and for the health system in terms of cost. Missed diagnosis and delayed treatment are associated with impaired outcomes. The prevention and early treatment of acute exacerbations of COPD therefore have a major role in the management of COPD patients and could be facilitated by telemonitoring tools.

The purpose of the present study is to validate the interest of remote monitoring of various parameters (cardio-respiratory, environmental, symptom questionnaires) to predict and detect early the occurrence of acute exacerbations of COPD.
