2 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Definition Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is a preventable and treatable state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible The airflow limitation is usually progressive and is associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles and gases, primarily caused by cigarette smoking Although COPD affects the lungs, it also produces significant systemic consequences ATS/ERS Statement 24

40 Conclusions COPD is a complex disease affecting the lungs but incurring in several systemic effects such as muscle dysfunction Muscle dysfunction, together with lung function impairment, causes exercise intolerance Pulmonary rehabilitation, particularly exercise training, is an intervention aimed at restoring normal muscl function PR improves exercise tolerance, HRQoL and improves rate of exacerbations and hospitalisation days Early PR has the same beneficial effects that PR for stable COPD patients and may have an impact on survival

41 Conclusions Strength training and NMES may help preventing muscle dysfunction during exacerbations and incur beneficial effects for the patients High intensity programmes are preferable to low intensity programmes since achieve greater effects Longer programmes seems to achieve greater effect than shorter programmes It is generally believed that longer programes yield more endurable training effects
