Facilitators and barriers of home pulmonary rehabilitation for lung transplant recipients:a qualitative study
Objective To explore the influencing factors of home pulmonary rehabilitation for lung transplant re-cipients,so as to provide a basis for the construction of targeted intervention for home rehabilitation.Methods From August to November 2023,the purposive sampling was used to select 20 cases of lung transplant recipients for semi-structured interviews.Data was analyzed by traditional content analysis method based on capability,opportunity,and motivation-behavior model.Results Facilitators of rehabilitation behavior included opportunity factors(rehabilitation management of transplant center,multiple social support),motivational factors(perceived benefits,high self-efficacy,strong motivation,strong sense of responsibility,and good exercise habits).Barriers of rehabilitation behavior included ability factors(physical dysfunction,lack of knowledge),opportunity factors(poor rehabilitation environment,heavy eco-nomic burden),motivational factors(fear of exercise,uncomfortable activity experience,and lack of rehabilitation self-discipline).Conclusion The influencing factors of home pulmonary rehabilitation in lung transplant recipients are complex.Medical staff should take targeted measures to promote home rehabilitation to improve the exercise ability,quality of life,and clinical outcomes.
