Brief Summary: People with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are at greater risk for Metabolic syndrome (MetS). Although the management of MetS will not cure COPD, it can beneficially impact health outcomes and quality of life through lifestyle modifications. The study aims to determine if using the Digital Metabolic Rehab program, which is based on preventive self-care and includes three key pillars of health: nutrition, fitness, and mindfulness, will be feasible to reduce or reverse MetS for individuals living with COPD.
Detailed Description: It is estimated that 50% of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are at risk for having Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). While COPD is incurable, MetS can be reduced by diet and exercise. Yet, the evidence shows that lifestyle interventions with the self-management of health at home are low. Thus, the Canadian Health Advanced by Nutrition and Graded Exercise (CHANGE) protocol and My Viva PlanĀ® (MVP) were created. CHANGE protocol is a personalized approach to nutrition and exercise modification supported by an interprofessional team in primary care settings. MVP is a digital Canadian self-care treatment program encompassing nutrition, fitness, and mindfulness. The investigators propose a 6-month Digital Metabolic Rehabilitation program using CHANGE protocol + MVP to guide diet and self-awareness in 50 individuals diagnosed with COPD and MetS. Assessments and measurements will be completed at baseline, 3 and 6 months. The study aims to determine the impact of the CHANGE protocol + MVP on reducing or reversing MetS for individuals living with COPD. This study will inform whether the Digital Metabolic Rehab program directly impacts health and wellness among patients with COPD and could become an essential tool for virtual, preventative self-care delivery in primary care.
