Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Compare the effect of upper limbs strength training versus the effect of upper limb endurance training on dyspnea in patients with COPD during a pulmonary rehabilitation program.
Time Frame: Change from inclusion at 4 week
Measurement of dyspnea using the London Chest Daily Activity Living (LCADL) questionnaire. This 15-item, self-administered questionnaire allows an evaluation of dyspnea in patients with COPD during daily activities divided into four components: self-care, domestic, physical, and leisure. Patients could score from 0: "I would not do anyway" to 5: "I need someone else to do this". LCADL score is calculated by aggregating the points assigned to each question, with a higher score representing maximal disability.
Secondary Outcomes
- Compare dyspnea in daily life between the 2 groups(At inclusion and week 4)
- Measuring upper limb endurance(At inclusion and week 4)
- Compare upper limbs muscle fatigue at the end of a functional test using the upper limbs(At inclusion and week 4)
- Compare dyspnea at the end of a functional test using the upper limbs(At inclusion and week 4)
- Compare the evolution of upper limb strength between the 2 groups.(At inclusion and week 4)
