Contributions of authors

Catherine McCabe and Margaret McCann independently screened titles and abstracts for inclusion and retrieved and screened full‐text study reports/publications when relevant. Anne Marie Brady and Catherine McCabe independently extracted study characteristics from included studies, and Catherine McCabe transferred data into the Review Manager (Review Manager 2012) file and conducted analyses. All review authors contributed to the discussion of study findings.

Declarations of interest

Catherine McCabe and Anne‐Marie Brady received a commercialisation feasibility grant from Enterprise Ireland to conduct a market survey on the possibility of commercialisation of an assistive navigational software platform to enable self‐management in COPD. The marketing exercise was completed, and no plans are in place to develop this further. Catherine McCabe and Anne‐Marie Brady were members of a research team, funded by Intel Ireland Ltd and the Technology Research for Independent Living Centre, exploring the use of mobile and fixed technology to provide motivating educational material (videos for peer learning) to people living with chronic illnesses (e.g. COPD) to bring about behavioural change for sustained self‐management and improved quality of life. The funding supported a post‐doc researcher who produced several relevant short videos on topics that included exercise and social activity. This project was completed several years ago, and a related publication was produced at that time. See also Published notes.

Computer and mobile technology interventions for self management in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Differences between protocol and review

Although it was not originally a prespecified outcome of interest for this review, we included reporting of adverse events because it is recommended by MECIR standards.

In our protocol, we indicated that we would include six outcomes in the 'Summary of findings' table (hospital admissions, acute exacerbations, health‐related quality of life (HRQoL), self‐efficacy, functional capacity, and anxiety and depression). However, as the included studies reported on only three primary outcomes ‐ HRQoL, hospitalisations and acute exacerbations ‐ we included the outcome measure, sustained behaviour change (smoking and physical activity), as these were reported as secondary outcomes in the included studies.

Notes

The authors have confirmed that the Technology Research for Independent Living (TRIL) Centre comprised University College Dublin, Trinity College Dublin, Intel and GE Healthcare and was also supported financially by the Industrial Development Authority. Authors Catherine McCabe and Anne‐Marie Brady, as part of a wider team, applied to the TRIL Centre for funding, which was allocated on a rolling basis, rather than for a specific call. A Board made up of representative from the members of the Centre determined funding recipients; not all applications were successful. Review co‐author, Margaret McCann, was not part of the TRIL‐funded team. The review itself was published more than 3 years after the TRIL‐funded project was completed and there was no financial relationship between the review team and industry at the time of producing the review. Furthermore, this review is currently being superseded with a new review for which the author team is fully compliant with current COI policy.

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

Comments

Risk with face‐to‐face/digital and/or written support

Risk with smart technology

Hospital admission

239 (1 RCT; Moy 2015 at 12 months)

⊕⊕ Lowa

Hospital admission not reported at 4 months. At 12 months. smart technology did not significantly impact the number of hospital admissions

Acute exacerbations requiring general practitioner (GP) visit and/or additional treatment

239 (1 RCT; Moy 2015 at 12 months)

⊕⊕ Lowa

Acute exacerbations were not reported at 4 months. At 12 months, smart technology did not significantly impact the number of acute exacerbations

Health‐related quality of life (HRQoL)
assessed with SGRQ and CCQ
Follow‐up: range 4 weeks to 6 months

Mean HRQoL ranged across control groups from 0.08 to 1.686

SMD in HRQoL in the intervention group was 0.22 lower (0.44 to 0.03 lower)

472 (3 RCTs)

⊕⊕ Lowa

Lower scores on both SGRQ and CCQ indicate better HRQoL. The SGRQ scale ranges from 0 to 100, and a change in score of 4 units is regarded as the minimum clinically important difference (MCID). The SMD in the lower score indicates better HRQoL with smart technology

Daily step count
assessed with pedometer
Follow‐up: range 4 weeks to 4 months

Mean daily step count was 3200 to 4617 steps

Mean daily step count in the intervention group improved by 864 steps (369.66 to 1358.46 higher)

230 (2 RCTs; Moy 2015 at 4 months and Tabak 2013 at 4 weeks)

⊕⊕ Lowa

The follow‐up period differed between studies, from 4 weeks to 4 months. Smart technology significantly improved physical activity as seen in daily step counts

Self‐efficacy

0

This outcome was not measured in any of the included studies

Behaviour change: smoking cessation

284 (1 RCT)

⊕⊕⊕
Moderateb

Results showed no significant effect on smoking cessation

Functional capacity (6‐minute walking test or similar)

0

None of the included studies measured this outcome

Anxiety and depression

0

None of the included studies measured this outcome

*The risk in the intervention group (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI)

CI: confidence interval; SMD: standardised mean difference

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: We are very confident that the true effect lies close to the estimate of effect
Moderate quality: We are moderately confident in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of effect but may be substantially different
Low quality: Our confidence in the effect estimate is limited: The true effect may be substantially different from the estimate of effect
Very low quality: We have very little confidence in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be substantially different from the estimate of effect

aCI is wide owing to the small number of studies and the small sample sizes, which may impact precision of estimates

bCI is wide owing to the single study and the small sample size, which may impact precision of estimates
