Using a mobile health application to support self-management in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a six-month cohort study

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4472616/

Conclusions

Home based, unassisted, daily use of the mHealth platform is feasible and acceptable to people with COPD for reporting daily symptoms and medicine use, and to measure physiological variables such as pulse rate and oxygen saturation. These findings provide evidence for integrating telehealth interventions with clinical care pathways to support self-management in COPD.
