Oxygen levels in muscles and brain in COPD patients
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study measures oxygen levels in your brain and leg muscles during exercise to understand how COPD affects them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 70 years old.
- You have moderate to severe COPD (GOLD stage II or III).
- Your condition has been stable for at least 4 weeks without a flare-up.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18.5 and 24.9.
- You can safely perform exercise tests like walking or cycling.
