Isoinertial Training in Patients With COPD

Effect of Isoinertial Training on Muscle Strength and Functional Capacity in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Isoinertial training is emerging as a potentially effective strategy to improve strength and functionality in older people diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), due to its influence on muscle mass and neuromuscular efficiency. COPD is characterized by systemic alterations, including peripheral muscle dysfunction; which contributes to patient functional limitation, and reduces patients' quality of life. Isoinertial training may improve the physiological response to effort, and also promote functional performance in this population. Hence, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of an isoinertial training program on muscle strength and functional capacity in patients with COPD during an 8-week intervention.
