[Nurse practitioners as key actors in pulmonary rehabilitation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].
Revue des Maladies Respiratoires 2022 November 10
INTRODUCTION: While pulmonary rehabilitation is registered in the COPD management guidelines with a high level of evidence, it is not adequately performed in accordance with patients' needs. Advanced nurse practitioners (IPA, in French) provide expertise enabling improved access and enhanced implementation of rehabilitation programs. Based on foreign experience, the present study has been designed to propose avenues for the development of more effective practices in France.
METHODS: Using Google Scholar and Pubmed databases, a search algorithm was used to identify international publications from 2003 to 2022 dealing with the role of nurse practitioners (IP, in French) in respiratory rehabilitation for COPD patients.
RESULTS: Fourteen articles, mainly from English-speaking countries, were analysed. The involvement of nurse practitioners in pulmonary rehabilitation is very broad-based, their main missions being initial disease assessment, therapeutic education, improved professional sensitivity and patient follow-up at all stages of a rehabilitation program.
CONCLUSION: Nurse practitioners have a major role in the implementation of pulmonary rehabilitation programs for COPD patients. Their involvement at different levels can improve access and success of programs over time.
