Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the effectiveness of remote home-based exercise rehabilitation using mobile Internet technology for patients with pulmonary hypertension，especically providing early and mid-term results of its effectiveness. The main questions it aims to answer are: Dose tele-rehabilitation training improves prognostic function and quality of life in patients with pulmonary hypertension？ Researchers will compare tele-rehabilitation training group to a control group (receive health propaganda and education, and then follow their daily routine after discharge from the hospital) to see if tele-rehabilitation training works to improve prognosis. Participants will: During their stay in the hospital, the patients of tele-rehabilitation training group were accompanied by a rehabilitation trainer and a psychotherapist for a complete cycle of (7 days ± 3 days 1 week/times) standardized training. The scheme of rehabilitation is impedance training. A specialized professional team including cardiologists, rehabilitation trainers, psychotherapists and radiologists were involved. After discharge from the hospital, patients in the rehabilitation group underwent 3-5 weekly daily training sessions and intensive supervision and management by the online community at least once a week. Visit the clinic at the 3rd month of the study. Extended follow-up up to 6 months may be considered if patients are cooperative and could complete the training program in the first 3 months.

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	tele-rehabilitation training	During their stay in the hospital, the patients were accompanied by a rehabilitation trainer and a psychotherapist for a complete cycle of (7 days ± 3 days 1 week/times) standardized training. After discharge from the hospital, patients in the rehabilitation group underwent 3-5 weekly daily （a total of 3 months）training sessions and intensive supervision and management by the online community at least once a week. All patients' routines were monitored by telemetry and data, photographs and video recordings were collected by a specialized agency. The scheme of rehabilitation is impedance training. A specialized professional team including cardiologists, rehabilitation trainers, psychotherapists and radiologists were involved.
BEHAVIORAL	health propaganda and education	During their stay in the hospital, participants of the control group received health propaganda and education (7 days ± 3 days 1 week/times). After discharge from the hospital, the control group followed their daily routine.
