TL;DR: Despite trength training being a key component of pulmonary ehabilitation, to the authors’ knowledge, only three studies have evaluated the long-term preservation of strength following 12 weeks and 6 months f pulmonary rehabilitation and it was suggested that though strength gains decrease, they may remain signifiantly higher than baseline for between 3 and 12 months fter resistance training.

TL;DR: It was feasible to continuously measure vital signs during free-living conditions in people with COPD symptoms but with additional challenges in the post-AECOPD context, and wearable multiparametric technology showed good user acceptance and was able to measure vital Signs in a COPD population.

TL;DR: It can be difficult to secure regular multidisciplinary input to PR programs, and the educational component is an integral component and represents a large proportion of a program.

TL;DR: SPACE can bring about gains in HRQoL, endurance capacity and reduced depression for those at risk, that are maintained over 6 months, which suggest self-management skills of emotional and medical management have been gained.

TL;DR: The responses indicate the huge interest and the urgent need to establish a programme to support and mitigate the long term impact of Covid-19.
