Abstract: BackgroundAsthma patients are enrolled in multimodal pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programs. However, available data for the effectiveness of PR in asthma are sparse. Therefore, the primary aim of this randomized control trial (RCT) is to evaluate short-term (end of rehabilitation) and intermediate-term effectiveness (3 months after rehabilitation) of PR for patients with asthma regarding asthma control (primary outcome) and other outcomes. Secondly, moderator effects of gender, age, baseline asthma control, q… Show more

“…It is possible that patients selected and referred for PR by the authorities had a greater rehabilitation potential than those not selected. To remove this bias, we plan a follow-up randomised study using a waiting-list design in order to create an appropriate control group by assigning subjects at random to the rehabilitation or the waiting list [53]. In order to minimise known biases such as seasonal influences on the results we recruited continuously over the period of 1 year.…”

“…Bisher liegen zur Effektivität der Rehabilitation bei Asthma, auch aus Deutschland [394,395] und der Schweiz [396], eine Reihe von Beobachtungsstudien vor. Die Ergebnisse einer großen deutschen RCT zur Rehabilitation beim Asthma bronchiale werden zum Jahreswechsel 2017/18 erwartet [397].…”

“…Eine deutsche Studie konnte zudem zeigen, dass der Grad der Asthmakontrolle auch noch ein Jahr nach einer 3-wöchigen stationären Rehamaßnahme signifikant höher war als vor Reha-Beginn [27]. Ergebnisse einer großen laufenden deutschen RCT (Wartegruppen-Design: Reha versus Wartegruppe vor Reha) [28] zur Rehabilitation bei Asthma bronchiale werden Anfang 2018 erwartet.…”
