Description

Abdullah Aljahan, Rachel Jordan, and James Hodgkinson explore how the pandemic changed COPD care in a 2025 qualitative study. Lung patients were shifted almost overnight to phone and video consultations. Whether that suited people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was largely unknown.

Twelve interviews with patients and clinicians in England's West Midlands were analyzed for themes. The study weighs what remote care helped, what it harmed, and what blocked or enabled it. Patients' own views anchor the findings, drawn from a local lung study cohort. Health systems planning permanent remote services need exactly this kind of ground-level evidence.
