Summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease that results in progressive airflow limitation and respiratory distress. Physiopathological features of COPD suggest that people who suffer from this disease have many risk factors for falls that have been identified in older individuals. Risk of falls is multi-factorial and impaired balance has been shown to contribute.

The investigators aimed to demonstrate that, IMT performed during a PRP may improve Postural control in COPD patients.
