Can a better shoe help COPD patients breathe easier?

NCT ID NCT07445750

Summary

This study is testing if special 'active' sports shoes, designed to make walking easier, can help people with severe COPD. Seventy-five hospitalized patients will take two standard walking tests—one in their usual shoes and one in the special shoes—to see if they can walk farther and feel less breathless. The goal is to find a simple, low-cost way to improve daily mobility and quality of life for people with this lung condition.
