Summary

Patients who are diagnosed with COPD by a pulmonology specialist and referred to pulmonary rehabilitation will be included in the study. Cases that meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized and divided into two groups, standard exercise program group (SGr) and chair-based exercise. program group will be called (ChGr). While standard exercises will be given to SGr, chair-based exercises will be applied to ChGr. All evaluation and initial training sessions of the cases will be held in the hospital. Apart from this, they will be asked to do their exercises at home with the exercise videos that will be sent to them. In order to ensure that home exercises are performed completely and correctly, 2 sessions of online simultaneous exercise training will be provided with a physiotherapist via videoconference on a smartphone, and exercise follow-ups will be carried out by calling once a week. The program duration is 8 weeks, 5 days a week.

Standard Exercise Program

The program content consists of breathing exercises, upper and lower extremity strengthening with theraband and self-walking. Chest, abdominal and lateral basal breathing exercises will be performed 10 times each. Resistance exercises will be performed as strengthening exercises for the major muscle groups of the upper and lower extremities using medium-hard theraband. Patients will be asked to walk 30 minutes a day on flat ground at 60% workload, for periods calculated according to the 6-minute walk test results (land-based walking).

Chair-based Exercise Program

The program content consists of breathing exercises and chair-supported exercises. Chest, abdominal and lateral basal breathing exercises will be performed 10 times each. Chair exercises are given in the exercise brochure. Exercises are performed with a chair support or sitting on a chair. In addition, patients will be asked to walk 30 minutes a day on flat ground at 60% workload, for periods calculated according to the 6-minute walk test results (land-based walking).
