Summary
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a physical activity coaching intervention - delivered through an eHealth platform both during and after pulmonary rehabilitation - to enhance physical activity levels and health-related outcomes in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). All participants will attend the pulmonary rehabilitation program for 2 months; the experimental group will receive a physical activity coaching intervention at the end of the 1st month of the rehabilitation program, which will continue for 6 months following the completion of the program. Assessments will be conducted at the beginning, midway, and at the end of the coaching program, as well as 3 months and 6 months after its conclusion.
