To explore how, under what circumstances and why telerehabilitation can improve adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic respiratory diseases.
A realist review.
Embase, MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to 2 July 2024 to identify relevant literature.
Initial programme theory was developed through research team meeting, informal literature reading and the use of Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour model. After completing the literature search, key evidence was appraised, extracted and synthesised into context-mechanism-outcome configurations.
The review included 23 studies. Seven context-mechanism-outcome configurations were identified. Accessibility and convenience of pulmonary rehabilitation; social interaction and support; technical support; individuality and flexibility of program; getting feedback and seeing results; real-time monitoring of diseases; and diverse motivational incentives were found to be critical for telerehabilitation to improve adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic respiratory diseases.
This review explains the key mechanisms by which telerehabilitation improves adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, which may contribute to the development and improvement of future pulmonary telerehabilitation interventions.
The program theory developed in this study may guide researchers and clinical staff in the development or improvement of pulmonary telerehabilitation interventions to improve patients' adherence to pulmonary rehabilitation and further support better pulmonary rehabilitation outcomes.
This study adheres to The RAMESES reporting standards.

To explore how, why and under what circumstances transitional care can be normalised as a routine care practice for adult patients with enterostomy after discharge from hospitals.
Realist review.
This review was conducted in three iterative phases: (1) constructing an initial programme theory to identify the scope of the study; (2) retrieving and evaluating the evidence, extracting data and integrating the evidence; and (3) analysing and integrating the evidence to refine the programme theory.
Five bibliographic databases and the grey literature were searched from 1947 to 2024 to identify the studies of two core concepts: enterostomy and transitional care.
A total of 36 papers were included, identifying nine context-mechanism-outcome configurations that explain how, why and under what circumstances transitional care can be normalised as routine care for adult patients with enterostomy after discharge: (1) Responsibilities of individual roles; (2) Interdisciplinary team collaboration; (3) Support from upper management; (4) Communication and interaction; (5) Multiple linkage; (6) Professional training; (7) External support and policy formulation; (8) Personalised measures; and (9) Evaluation and feedback.
The normalised implementation of transitional care is essential to help enterostomal patients better adapt to stoma life and improve their quality of life. An effective transitional care model not only relies on the support of professional caregivers, but requires the close cooperation of patients, family members, communities and healthcare organisations.
Reporting was adhered to the RAMESES publication standards: realist syntheses.
Patients and members of the public were involved in study design. Their contributions were participating in advisory groups, ensuring the research was addressed.
This study provides theoretical guidance for clinical stoma transitional care, translating the research findings into routine healthcare practices, constantly optimising and improving the stoma care system, and offering patients higher-quality and more efficient services.
This research, through the realist review approach in combination with the Normalisation Process Theory (NPT) and the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), systematically elucidates for the first time how, why and under what circumstances transitional care can be regularised as a routine post-discharge care measure for adult enterostomy patients. The research findings will: Improve the quality of life of patients: Through personalised care plans and multidisciplinary team cooperation, help patients better adapt to life with an ostomy, reduce complications and improve self-management ability. Optimise clinical practice: Provide theoretical guidance for medical staff, promote the regular implementation of transitional care and improve the quality and efficiency of care. Promote education and training: Emphasise the importance of professional training and communication skills, and provide new ideas for nursing education. Support policy formulation: Call on the government and medical institutions to improve relevant policies, provide more resources and support and promote the rational allocation of medical resources.
