International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, 12, 1221-1231. https://doi.org/10.2147/copd.s120706

Abstract: Telehealth programs to promote early identification and timely self-management of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (AECOPDs) have yielded disappointing results, in part, because parameters monitored (symptoms, p...

Journal Article
Parker, R. A., Weir, C. J., Rubio, N., Rabinovich, R., Pinnock, H., Hanley, J., McCloughan, L., Drost, E. M., Mantoani, L. C., MacNee, W., & McKinstry, B. (2016).

PLOS ONE, 11(12), Article e0168321. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0168321

Introduction
The Bland-Altman limits of agreement method is widely used to assess how well the measurements produced by two raters, devices or systems agree with each other. However, mixed effects versions of the method which take into account multi...

Oximetry-supported self-management for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: mixed method feasibility pilot project (2015)
Journal Article
MacNab, M., Lee, S. H., McCloughan, L., Hanley, J., McKinstry, B., & Pinnock, H. (2017). Oximetry-supported self-management for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: mixed method feasibility pilot project. BMC Health Services Research, 15(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12913-015-1135-2

Background: Pulse oximetry could potentially contribute to self-monitoring. NHS Lothian’s ‘Light Touch’ service
provided COPD patients with a self-management plan based on symptoms and oximetry. The service was overseen
(though not actively monitor... Read More about Oximetry-supported self-management for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: mixed method feasibility pilot project.
