Personalized exercise for COPD
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is testing a personalized exercise program for people with COPD. It aims to see if using your fitness test results can help create a better exercise plan. If you join, you will follow a tailored exercise routine to improve your breathing and physical function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a diagnosis of COPD.
- You must have completed a maximal exercise test (CPET) that includes measurement of your first ventilatory threshold.
- You must not have any unstable or significant health conditions (such as heart, lung, muscle, or nervous system problems) that would make it unsafe to participate in a pulmonary rehabilitation program.
- You must not have participated in a pulmonary rehabilitation program in the last 12 months.

This study looks at how muscle oxygen levels and physical function change during exercise tests in people with COPD. It aims to better understand the body's response to activity and may help improve future care.
This study tests whether a personalized music program can help people with COPD walk more and feel better. The music changes based on your walking speed to keep you motivated during a pulmonary rehab program.
This trial tests a pulmonary rehabilitation (lung exercise) program for people with COPD. It aims to see how daily activities and lung function can improve with a structured at-home exercise plan.
This trial tests whether one-on-one guidance from a sports-health specialist can improve your well-being if you have a chronic lung condition like asthma, COPD, or sleep apnea and are already taking part in a lung rehabilitation program.
This study tests a virtual (online) pulmonary rehabilitation program for people with COPD. If you join, you will participate in exercises and education from home, with remote support from the study team.
This study tests whether a special treadmill exercise program (combining two types of muscle contractions) helps people with COPD breathe better and exercise longer. You would come to the lab multiple times per week to do supervised workouts on a treadmill.
