Brief Summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease that results in progressive airflow limitation and respiratory distress. Physiopathological features of COPD suggest that people who suffer from this disease have many risk factors for falls that have been identified in older individuals. Risk of falls is multi-factorial and impaired balance has been shown to contribute. The investigators aimed to demonstrate that, IMT performed during a PRP may improve Postural control in COPD patients.

Conditions

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Keywords

COPD; IMT; CoP ML; CoP AP; Posture

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Balance outcomes

  Balance were measured by stabilometry to evaluate postural control in COPD patients. Two principals variabels were evaluated: the center of pressure in the mediolateral direction (CoP ML) ; the center of presure in anteroposterior direction (CoP AP).

  Basline, After 2 months

Study Arms (2)

IMT group

EXPERIMENTAL

Inspiratory muscle training + aerobic exercice

Other: Pulmonary rehabilitation

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

aerobic exercice

Other: Pulmonary rehabilitation

Interventions

Pulmonary rehabilitation OTHER

The experimental group receives inspiratory muscle training and aerobic exercise. The Active Comparator group received only aerobic exercise group received only aerobic exercise.

Control group; IMT group
