Chapter 7: Pulmonary Rehabilitation
One of the treatment options that exist for chronic bronchitis is that of pulmonary rehabilitation. This treatment is one that provides restorative and preventative care to individuals that are suffering.
This process of treatment is one that is designed to fit each patient’s needs and their situation. There is no definite treatment procedure, but one that works to allow you better care over a period of time.
As your lungs become less and less capable of providing the right amount of oxygen to your body, you need an increased amount of training on how to handle and improve your ability to manage with this progression.
During pulmonary rehabilitation, your doctor will work with you to determine your needs through assessment. Then, you will be working on a program that provides you with several key elements. Skill training, physical reconditioning, and psychological support are given to the patient in the necessary dose to provide you with the ability to cope with your condition.
Goals are established that will provide you and your team of doctors with the necessary establishment of improving your quality of life and your ability to improve your health. You are not alone in this process, though. Your family is encouraged to work right alongside you to insure that you are given the care that’s needed and so that they can give you the support you need.
