About this study

The present study aims to assess the prevalence and impact of comorbid psychiatric disorders among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), in order to determine the effects of psychiatric comorbidity on exercise tolerance and physical activity post-PR and HRQoL, as well as to determine the processes by which these psychiatric disorders may impact on these patient behaviours.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The change in exercise tolerance at 1-year post-PR

    Exercise tolerance will be measured with the 6-minute walking test (6MWT).

    Measured: Participants will be evaluated at 3 time points: (1) post-PR; (2) at 6-mo; (3) at 12-mo follow-up.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The change in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) at 1-year post-PR

    HRQoL will be measured with the 12-Item Short Form Survey and the COPD Assessment Test

    Measured: Participants will be evaluated at 3 time points: (1) post-PR; (2) at 6-mo; (3) at 12-mo follow-up.
