Operationalising the Essence principles for equitable global health research partnerships in low- and middle-income countries
Despite growing calls to decolonise global health, many research capacity strengthening initiatives in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) remain externally driven, short-term, and focused primarily on individual training rather than sustainable institutional ecosystems. Drawing on experiences from the RESPIRE collaboration across South and Southeast Asia, we reflect on key lessons and enabling mechanisms for operationalising equitable globa…
Delivering remote pulmonary rehabilitation in Bangladesh
Background: Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is an effective and essential component of care for the increasing number of individuals with chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs). Despite the benefits, it remains underutilised and poorly accessible in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We aimed to determine the feasibility of delivering PR in Bangladesh at home because of pandemic travel restrictions. Methods: Aligned with the Medical Research Co…
Barriers and enablers to centre-based pulmonary rehabilitation for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in low- and middle-income countries
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Despite the proven benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) for patients with COPD, its referral, uptake, and completion rates remain low. This systematic review aimed to identify the barriers and enablers to centre-based PR among patients with COPD in LMICs. Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Scien…
Exploring the perceptions of patients with chronic respiratory diseases and their insights into pulmonary rehabilitation in Bangladesh
Background: Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) require holistic management which considers patients' preferences, appropriate pharmacotherapy, pulmonary rehabilitation, and integrated care. We aimed to understand the perceptions of people with CRDs about their condition and pulmonary rehabilitation in Bangladesh. Methods: We conducted semi-structured interviews with a maximum variation sample of people with CRDs who had participated in a feasibi…
Developing a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation programme for patients with chronic respiratory diseases in Malaysia
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the importance of remote healthcare and home-based interventions, including pulmonary rehabilitation, for patients with chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs). It has also heightened the vulnerability of individuals with underlying respiratory conditions to severe illness from COVID-19, necessitating exploration and assessment of the feasibility of delivering home - pulmonary rehabilitation (home-PR)…
Sustaining stakeholder engagement for health research during the Covid-19 pandemic
Governments worldwide responded to the continual waves of the COVID-19 pandemic with unprecedented measures ranging from social distancing and cancellation of public events to border restrictions and complete closure of all but essential services [1]. Health research studies were suspended, becoming casualties of COVID-19-related lockdowns and distancing policies [2]. Engaging and involving stakeholders including patients, [...]
Mapping national information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure to the requirements of potential digital health interventions in low- and middle-income countries
Background: Digital health can support health care in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) by overcoming problems of distance, poor infrastructure and the need to provide community practitioners with specialist support. We used five RESPIRE countries as exemplars (Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan) to identify the digital health solutions that are valuable in their local setting, worked together with local clinicians and resear…
Digital auscultation as a diagnostic aid to detect childhood pneumonia
Barriers and challenges of implementing pulmonary rehabilitation in Malaysia
lobally, chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are one of the most common non-communicable diseases. Of these, asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are the most prevalent, and post-tuberculosis lung disorders, bronchiectasis and interstitial lung disease are growing problems especially in developing countries By 2030, CRD mortality rate is expected to rise to 8.6%, making it the world's third leading cause of death [2]. Between 1…
Engaging with stakeholders in a research programme to promote implementation of pulmonary rehabilitation in Bangladesh
The engagement of stakeholders can improve research prioritisation, implementation, and outcomes [1]. Stakeholders may be defined as the individuals and organisations having an interest or ‘stake’ in the outcome of a programme or project [2]. Stakeholder engagement is a process of building relationships through communication and shared decision-making at all stages of the research cycle [3]. Although the concept has been well established in high …
