NCT ID NCT00295113

Summary

This study aimed to better understand how the heart and lungs of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) work during a specific 30-minute exercise test. Researchers observed 10 patients with moderate COPD while they performed an exercise routine with intense bursts of activity. The goal was to gather information on breathing and heart function, including blood pressure in the lungs, to improve future care.
