NCT ID NCT05492149
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 150 adults with COPD to see if a drop in exercise ability during pulmonary rehabilitation could predict when a flare-up (exacerbation) might happen. Researchers tracked changes in physical performance and compared them to hospital visits for COPD attacks. The goal was to find a simple way to catch early warning signs and help patients avoid serious breathing emergencies.
