简要总结
This study investigates the impact of expectations on individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and aims to develop and validate a novel tool to assess these expectations. By understanding the role of expectations, healthcare providers can better tailor interventions and support for COPD patients, ultimately improving their quality of life and treatment outcomes.
详细描述
This research, carried out at the specialized cardiorespiratory rehabilitation unit of the Don Gnocchi Foundation in Milan, delves into the influence of expectations on individuals living with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The primary objective is to craft and validate a fresh assessment tool to gauge these expectations. Moreover, the questionnaire is reintroduced to patients after a month, during which additional data, as detailed in the corresponding section, are gathered.

主要结局
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Expectations Questionnaire
时间窗: From October 2023 to January 2025
A questionnaire composed of 27 items, designed by us, asking the patient to assess their disease expectations for the next 3 months. Each item is rated on a 7-point Likert scale, allowing for a nuanced evaluation of the patient's perceptions and expectations. Scores range from 27 to 189. A higher score indicates a worse illness perception. A questionnaire composed of 27 items, designed by us, asking the patient to assess their disease expectations for the next 3 months.
