Improving outcomes with online COPD self-care.

Abstract
If self-management was implemented properly, the NHS could save an estimated £235m over the next 10 years. An online self-management system for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease allows patients to access information whenever they need it. A comparison of conventional and online approaches to COPD self-management showed the online system is more effective in terms of health status and inhaler technique.
