Abstract
Objectives: Pulmonary Rehabilitation (PR) is a high-impact intervention for individuals with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) but access is limited in India. PR barriers include distance to travel, lack of service provision and lack of healthcare professionals to deliver PR, thus it is disproportionate to the immense burden of IPF in India. We explored the lived experiences of people living with IPF, family caregivers (CGs) and healthcare workers (HCWs) as well as their views towards home-based PR (HBPR) in Delhi, India.
Methods: A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with individuals with IPF (n = 20), CGs (n = 10) and HCWs (n = 10) was conducted. Data were analysed using codebook thematic analysis.
Results: Three major themes were generated: (i) Health impact, which included pathophysiological changes, range of symptoms experienced, disease consequences and impact of comorbidities; (ii) Disease management, which described strategies to control the progression and overall management of IPF, such as medications and exercises; (iii) Mode of Pulmonary Rehabilitation, which described perceptions regarding HBPR, comparisons with centre-based programmes, and how HBPR may fit as part of a menu of PR delivery options.
Conclusion: People living with IPF, family caregivers and healthcare workers were positive about the potential implementation of HBPR and suggested the development of a paper-based manual to facilitate HBPR over digital/online approaches. The content of HBPR should be sensitive to the additional impact of non-IPF health issues and challenges of reduced interactions with healthcare professionals.
