About this study

The Center of Life for Thoracic Transplant (COLTT) program is a daily (5 days per week) intensive rehabilitation program for patients who have undergone lung transplant. Patients are enrolled in COLTT as part of standard care after hospital discharge. This study is a retrospective review of seventy patients that measures the efficacy of the COLTT program and establishes predictors of patient success.This study will also measure the effect of functional outcomes on hospital readmission post COLTT discharge.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • All patients who completed the COLTT program from May, 2016 to July, 2017.

Treatment and study plan

Exercise

Other

5 days per week, 2.5 hours per day strength, balance and endurance training on an outpatient basis

Primary outcomes

  1. Time to reach program goals (days)

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks

    The number of days in the COLTT program required to reach program goals ( see secondary outcomes measures)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Gait speed (mph, % expected)

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks

    Gait speed (walking speed) is measured daily on a oval track

  2. Single leg stance performance (seconds, % expected)

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks

    The test result of a single leg stance test. Patients stand with hands on their hips, raise one leg off the ground and hold it for as long as possible.

  3. One-minute sit to stand performance (number, % expected)

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks

    The test result of a one-minute sit to stand test. Patients stand/sit from a chair as many times as they can in one minute.

  4. Six minute walk distance (feet, % expected)

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks

    The test result of a six-minute walk test, a field test of exercise capacity

Other outcomes

  1. Hospital readmission

    Time frame: 6 months

    Measured as number of hospital readmissions
