Pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD.

Celli, B R·1995·American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine

Abstract

The available evidence indicates that pulmonary rehabilitation benefits patients with symptomatic COPD. The effect of pulmonary rehabilitation programs on health care utilization is promising but requires further investigation. In contrast, aerobic lower extremity training is of benefit in several areas of importance to patients with COPD. These areas include exercise endurance, perception of dyspnea, quality of life, and self-efficacy. The exact role of upper extremity exercise and ventilatory muscle training in the exercise training programs requires further studies. Education and psychological support improve the awareness of the patient and increase their understanding of the disease, but when used alone they are of limited value. Pulmonary rehabilitation, when coupled with smoking cessation, optimization of blood gases, and medications, offers the best treatment option for patients with symptomatic airflow obstruction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
