Background: Due to their debilitating and progressive conditions, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) can reduce patients' quality of life (QOL) and cause fatigue. This study aimed to compare the effect of telephone and SMS follow-up of an empowerment program on QOL and fatigue in patients with COPD.Methods: This non blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) study was conducted on 105 patients with COPD in 2016-2017 in Shahrekord city. First, the pulmonary empowerment program was implemented for six 90-min sessions. Then, the patients were randomly assigned to three control, telephone follow-up, and SMS follow-up groups (35 individuals in each group) using a random number table. Data were collected in the first and the sixth sessions of the empowerment program and at the end of the follow-up period by demographic, QOL, and fatigue questionnaires. Eventually, they were analyzed through correlation coefficient and analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests using SPSS software (Ver. 20).Results: The study results on QOL showed that the groups were not significantly different before and after the empowerment (p > 0.05). However, they were statistically significant differences were observed between the groups at the end of the quarterly follow-up period (p < 0.001). ANOVA results for fatigue indicated no statistically significant differences between the groups before and after the empowerment (p > 0.05). The three groups were not significantly different after the intervention (p = 0.05).Conclusion: Based on the results, it is recommended to utilize follow-up as an important principle in empowerment using various technology methods and design more comprehensive empowerment to reduce patient fatigue.Trial registration: Iran National Committee for Ethics in Biomedical Research (IR.SKUMS.REC.1398.104) and the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT20170122032101N4) (6/4/2020).

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) remains a pressing global health concern, necessitating comprehensive understanding and improved management strategies. This study aimed to elucidate current COPD management practices and perceptions among healthcare professionals and patients across select geographic regions. Through a cross-sectional design, qualitative data was collected and analyzed, revealing both challenges and strengths in current COPD care approaches. Key findings suggest that while there is a general consensus on the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, gaps in training, knowledge dissemination, and collaboration persist. Additionally, the study underscores the need for integrating objective clinical measures alongside qualitative feedback to holistically evaluate patient outcomes and care efficacy. The results provide a pivotal foundation upon which healthcare systems can build, emphasizing the integration of technology, personalized patient-centered care, and enhanced multidisciplinary collaboration. This study not only highlights the current landscape of COPD management but also indicates clear avenues for future research and intervention, aiming for global betterment in COPD care.
