Introduction
reduced muscle tone, palate, epiglottis, airway obstruction
AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION
Managing difficult airways is one of the most essential and challenging tasks for anesthesiologistsSecuring an open airway is important for successful FOI. In anesthetized patients with reduced muscle tone, a downward shift of the soft palate, tongue, and epiglottis close to the posterior pharyngeal wall results in nar...

Background
COPD
COPD
Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programs improve physical fitness, symptoms and quality of life (QoL) of patients with COPD. However, improved physical activity (PA) is not guaranteed after PR and the clinical benefits fade off after PR discharge. We aimed to investigate whether a 9 months PA-telecoaching program is able...

Conclusion
The semi-automated PA-telecoaching program implemented after 3 months of PR was effective to improve the amount of PA (steps/day) during PR and after follow-up. However, this was not accompanied by the maintenance of other PR-acquired benefits.

Strengths and limitations

To the best of our knowledge, this trial is one of the first to test a long-term effect of a PA intervention and to investigate the causal relationship between PA and PR-benefits using an interventional design after 3 months of PR and 9 months of follow-up. It therefore helps to understand the importance of achieving t...

Conclusion
The implementation of a semi-automated PA-telecoaching program after a 3 months-PR program was effective to improve the amount of PA. Contrary to our hypothesis, this did not result in a better maintenance of other PR-acquired benefits. Further studies need to look into further strategies to maintain the overall physic...
