Overview

Brief Summary

The investigators designed the current study with the main objective of determining whether Whole Body Vibration Training (WBVT) alone improves muscular force and/or modifies the functional capacity parameters in severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients referred to a rehabilitation programme.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • •severe COPD defined as a post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1)/ forced vital capacity (FVC) \< 0.7 and FEV1 \< 50% predicted,
  • •stable disease defined as no exacerbation,
  • •hospital admission or change in treatment in the previous 3 months.

Exclusion Criteria

  • •other significant respiratory disease (bronchiectasis,
  • •lung fibrosis, asthma, etc),
  • •active smoking,
  • •severe cardiovascular,
  • •neurological, and/or metabolic pathology that could interfere with the results,
  • •total hip, knee or ankle arthroplasty,
  • •previous vitreous haemorrhage,
  • •severe alcoholism (\> 80 g/day) and
  • •severe malnutrition (BMI \< 19 Kg/m2) to reduce the risk of falling and dropouts.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes
