Summary

This study looks at whether walking on an incline is better than walking faster on flat ground for people with COPD. The goal is to find ways to improve exercise programs so patients feel less short of breath. About 54 veterans with COPD will take part, and researchers will measure breathing rate, breathlessness, and walking time.
