Maximal Oxygen Uptake (VO2max) in Patients With COPD

Maximal Oxygen Uptake (VO2max) in Patients With COPD: a Test-Retest Reliability Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Jul 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), facing a decline in lung function and compromised quality of life, often benefit from regular exercise (1). Assessing their cardiorespiratory fitness through maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) is crucial (2), yet research on its validity and reliability in COPD patients remains sparse. This study aims to fill this gap, examining the content validity and test-retest reliability of the VO2-max test in COPD, comparing it with healthy controls.
