简要总结
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a preventable respiratory characterized by airflow obstruction that is not fully reversible. This disease a major cause of mortality worldwide. It is projected to rank the third-leading cause of death in 2020.
The objective of this study is to examine the effects of a physical therapy intervention in stable patients with COPD.
详细描述
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients have demonstrated important balance impairment (1).The deficit in balance control is identified as one of the risk factors of fall in subjects with COPD and alters their activities daily life (2,3). Porto and al. (2015) reported in a recent review that individuals with COPD have a decline in balance control when compared with healthy age matched controls(4).
