“…Also, 70% of cardiovascular surgeons, and thoracic, general and rehabilitation physicians regularly notified their patients about, and referred their patients to, CR programmes ( Table 1). 29 However, only 24% perceived CR was beneficial for the management of cardiopulmonary disease. A small minority (8.1%) of the surgeons and physicians thought cardiopulmonary rehabilitation was unnecessary or were not aware of it.…”

“…A small minority (8.1%) of the surgeons and physicians thought cardiopulmonary rehabilitation was unnecessary or were not aware of it. 29 No CR participation rate was provided, which would have helped determine if clinician beliefs ultimately influenced persuasion characteristics. Individual attitudes of the clinicians regarding the benefits of CR are likely to be influenced by their own health values and individual lifestyle choices.…”

“…Rashka et al [3] found a 25.14% awareness rate in their study. In a multicenter study containing 12 centers with a Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation (CPR) unit and 727 participants, Sarıkaya et al [11] found a 79.3% awareness rate, although knowledge was not comprehensive. Among the participating health care providers, 39.2% received education about CPR in some part of their professional lives.…”

Superiority of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) in patients with COPD have been entered the major guidelines of the disease and become gold standard of care in the management of COPD. Our aim is to evaluate the patients' awareness about their own illness and PR which supports behavioral interventions by encouraging exercise training, cooperative self-management depending on the patients themselves. Materials and methods: The study was included 200 patients. Patients who are competent enough to complete the questionnaire and diagnosed as COPD according to Global Inıtıatıve for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease(GOLD) criteria and at least 1 year on follow patients enrolled in the study. Questionnaire which is employed in our study is developed by a review of the current literature and consist of 3 parts. First part aims to investigate socio-demographics like age, gender, education and whereabouts. Second part (questions 1-9) evaluate the knowledge and awareness of COPD and 3rd part (10-22) investigate the awareness of PR. Results: Among the patients 93% (n=186) were male and 7% (n=14) were female. Mean age was 65.11±10.00 years. Mean duration of the disease was 7.8±6.69 years. Correct answer rates to the questions "is there another treatment modality for COPD other than medication" and "have you ever heard a treatment named pulmonary rehabilitation" were 14.5% and 7.5%, respectively. Conclusion: We found that the awareness of pulmonary rehabilitation is very low. Therefore, in our opinion it is essential to find out new methods, novel strategies to increase the awareness of pulmonary rehabilitation in COPD patients.

We aimed to determine the awareness level of the healthcare professionals about cardiopulmonary rehabilitation (CPR) and to compare the level of CPR awareness according to occupation and practice setting among the healthcare professionals. This cross-sectional survey study included physicians, nurses and physiotherapists who were working in a university hospital in which CPR service was available at the department of physical medicine and rehabilitation (PMR). Physicians of different specialties (including PMR, cardiology, thoracic diseases, internal medicine), nurses and physiotherapists were asked to fill out the survey. This survey was developed by CPR study group of PMR association and consisted of three parts. Descriptive statistics were used to describe demographic characteristics. Knowledge level of the participants was evaluated based on occupation and practice settings. Chi-square test was used to compare the answers to the items based on occupational group and practice settings. A total of 90 volunteers from four different clinics were included in this study. Among the participants, 55.6% were physicians, 27.8% were nurses, 16.7% were physiotherapists. Responses from the third section of the survey revealed that 84.4% of the participants were familiar with CPR. On the other hand statistically lower rate of nurses knew a CPR center to which they could refer their patients compared to physicians and physiotherapists (p<0.05). Almost all of the participants who were practice in PMR department were familiar with CPR, however about two third of participants who were practice other departments were familiar with CPR (p<0.05). This study indicates that healthcare professionals have some knowledge about CPR. However in our opinion it is essential to find out new methods, novel strategies to increase the awareness of CPR in nurses as well as healthcare professionals who were not practice in PMR department.
