Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a walking program on exercise capacity and quality of life in patient with COPD. Method: Patients with COPD were randomly assigned to pedometer group (PG) or control group (CON). Subjects in PG walked to target steps daily with pedometer for 6 weeks. Before and after the program, the following measurements were performed: pulmonary function test (PFT), daily steps, Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), COPD Assessment Test (CAT), and quality of life questionnaire (SF-12).
