NCT ID NCT07605117
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether an 8-week isoinertial training program (a type of resistance exercise) can improve muscle strength and daily function in 30 adults aged 50-80 with moderate to severe COPD. Participants will do exercises that challenge muscles in a controlled way, and researchers will measure grip strength, walking distance, and mobility. The goal is to see if this training helps people with COPD feel stronger and more capable in everyday activities.
