Self Efficacy, Walking Ability, Gait Speed and Physical Activity in People With Chronic Lung Disease

NCT01583595 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 70

Last updated 2013-04-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Most patients with chronic lung disease underestimate their actual walking ability due to low confidence. To better understand the relationships between lung function, self-efficacy for walking (confidence in ability to walk a defined distance), actual walking ability for the same distance gait speed and physical activity level-PAL- (total energy expenditure/resting metabolic rate).

Quality of life, self efficacy for activity questionnaires, physical activity level measurement, 4-meter gait speed and 6-minute walk distance will be measured.
