NCT ID NCT00295113
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at how the heart and lungs of 10 people with moderate COPD respond to a 30-minute exercise test with short, intense work periods. Researchers measured blood pressure in the lungs and overall heart function. They found that lung blood pressure did not spike dangerously and heart output stayed steady after the first few minutes, suggesting this type of exercise may be safe for COPD patients.
