[Current issues and digital technologies in pulmonary rehabilitation].

Chronic respiratory diseases - including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial lung diseases, lung cancer, and post-COVID conditions - are associated with substantial morbidity and reduced quality of life. In addition to pharmacological therapy, chest physiotherapy and pulmonary rehabilitation play a crucial role in improving functional capacity and patient outcomes. This review aims to summarize contemporary approaches in pulmonary rehabilitation, with particular emphasis on the integration of digital technologies and telerehabilitation strategies. A narrative review of the literature was conducted focusing on the structure of pulmonary rehabilitation programs, training modalities, maintenance strategies, and the clinical applicability of telemedicine-based solutions. Pulmonary rehabilitation, particularly when combined with structured exercise programs, maintenance interventions, and telemonitoring systems, can significantly improve exercise tolerance, symptom control, and health-related quality of life. Modern digital technologies enable real-time monitoring of patient status, facilitate individualized rehabilitation strategies, and support early detection of disease exacerbations. Telemedicine platforms, smart inhalers, and wearable sensors represent promising tools for the management of chronic respiratory diseases. Data generated by these technologies may contribute to improved clinical decision-making and optimization of rehabilitation outcomes. The integration of pulmonary rehabilitation with digital health technologies may play a key role in the future management of chronic respiratory diseases and in maintaining long-term functional stability in affected patients.
