Abstract

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a systemic disease, characterized by chronic limitation of pulmonary airflow, caused by the destruction of its lung parenchyma and alvea, with consequent decrease in lung function and functional limitation. Telerehabilitation is a current tool that provides assistance remotely, through videoconferences or recorded videos. Objective: To summarize, through a literature review, the available evidence regarding the benefits, clinical applications and limitations of pulmonary rehabilitation by telerehabilitation. Methodology: This study is a narrative review. Searches for scientific articles were carried out in the PEDro, PubMed, ScienceDirect and SciELO databases. The descriptors used were: COPD, physiotherapy, telerehabilitation, rehabilitation and their correspondences in English. Articles published between 2007 and 2022 were included and those with a review design were excluded. Results: 22 articles were included that contained comparative analyzes between telerehabilitation and face-to-face rehabilitation, using the Six-Minute Walk Test and assessment of physical exertion using the Borg scale. Resulting in non-inferiority between the two types of rehabilitation. Conclusion: Telerehabilitation was presented as an innovative care technique as it provides the opportunity to carry out the treatment virtually, with positive results in improving functional performance in the short and long term.
