This study is a single-blind (evaluator-blind), parallel-group randomized controlled trial comparing two approaches to home-based pulmonary rehabilitation self-management training in individuals with chronic respiratory disease (asthma or COPD): brochure-based and video-animation-based. The topic is current and clinically relevant; the comparison of digital health literacy and patient education materials is a relatively understudied area in the literature. Sample size calculations were performed, the CONSORT 2010 guidelines were followed, and the statistical method (mixed-design ANOVA) is appropriate to the study question.
