To Identify if a COPD Self-management App Can Safety and Appropriately Identify When Patients Are Not on the Best Medication Plan for Their COPD Symptoms and Support Their COPD Management.
NCT: NCT07797985 · RECRUITING
Brief Summary
Although COPD cannot be cured, managing COPD can help reduce symptoms control, slows progression of the disease, and may improve the quality of life. Management of COPD becomes less effective when healthcare professionals fail to prescribe appropriate inhaled therapies, due to poor adherence to evidence-based guidelines and underdiagnosis, or when patients fail to adhere to prescribed treatment regimens. my mhealth has developed an app called myCOPD to allow patients to record their COPD symptoms and medications, which in term supports them with their COPD. This app is now used by COPD patients across the UK, via a prescription from their healthcare professionals. my mHealth has now developed a research app MMH-LAB1 which, in the intervention arm, includes an algorithm to assist patients with understanding their level of symptom burden according to the severity of their daily symptoms and exacerbation risk. The algorithm then analyses current patient prescribed inhaled medication against those recommended by the GOLD 2023 report and informs the patient via the MMH-LAB1 app as to whether their medication needs to be changed by their healthcare provider. This trial will explore whether the introduction of the algorithm within the MMH-LAB1 app can be used as a safe, effective and acceptable tool to assist patients to achieve optimal guideline based inhaled therapy and therefore provide greater symptom control and lowered exacerbation risk for COPD patients. Participants will be randomised to the MMH-LAB1 app - control arm (MMH-LAB\_Control\_1 where participants just record COPD symptoms and medications), or to the MMH\_LAB1 app - intervention arm (MMH-LAB1\_Test\_1 where participants record their COPD symptoms and medication plus receiving information from the algorithm, as to whether their medications are in guidance or not, and if not, be notified to visit their healthcare professional.
