Abstract Background COPD Modern and effective pulmonary rehabilitation programs are global, multidisciplinary, individualized and use comprehensive approach acting on the patient as a whole and not only on the pulmonary component of the disease. In the last two decades interest for pulmonary rehabilitation is on the rise and a growing literature including several guidelines is now available. This review addresses the recent developments in the broad area of pulmonary rehabilitation as well as new methods to consider in the development of future and better programs. Modern literature for rationale, physic- pathological basis, structure, exercise training as well challenges for pulmonary rehabilitation programs are addressed. Among the main challenges of pulmonary rehabilitation, efforts have to be devoted to improve accessibility to early rehabilitation strategies, not only to patients with COPD but to those with other chronic respiratory diseases. Aims and Objective To assess the pretest and posttest knowledge on pulmonary rehabilitation among patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. To evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching program regarding pulmonary rehabilitation among patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. To find out association between pre-test and post-test knowledge of pulmonary rehabilitation with selected demographic variables. Methods A quantitative approach using pre experimental one group pre-test -post-test design. 120 COPD patients were selected using non probability convenient sampling at Udaipur district. Structured teaching program was given to the COPD at Udaipur district. Self-structure questionnaire will prepare and used to assess the knowledge of COPD patients regarding pulmonary rehabilitation. Results The maximum numbers of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 40.0% were in the age group of 31-40 years.The maximum numbers of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 66.0% were in the male.The proportion of 50 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 36% were in secondary education The proportion of 50 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 46%were earning Rs.5000-10000 per month The proportion of 50 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 90% were married persons.The proportion of 50 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 36% were farmer.The maximum numbers of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 56.0% were in the 1-5 years duration of illness. The level of knowledge was inadequate among 28%, moderately adequate among 60.0% and it was adequate only in 12% before structured teaching program.The level of knowledge was adequate among 44% and it was moderately adequate in 56% after structured teaching program.The mean of knowledge regarding pulmonary rehabilitation in the pretest was 14.68 and in the posttest was 20.06% respectively.It revealed that structured teaching program was found to be effective in improving in knowledge regarding pulmonary rehabilitation among chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.There was a significant difference in the mean scores between pretest and posttest in relation to knowledge of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients regarding pulmonary rehabilitation.There is significant association Between the Knowledge and demographic variables education, types of occupation, duration of illness of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patient at P<0.05 level.
