Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Lung function is measured using spirometry at end of rehabilitation and at 6 and 12 months<br> 2. Oxygen uptake is measured using the cardiopulmonary exercise test at the end of the rehabilitation and at 6 and 12 months<br> 3. Metabolism at the end of the rehabilitation is measured using the cardiopulmonary exercise test at the end of the rehabilitation and at 6 and 12 months<br> 4. Systemic inflammation is measured by routine laboratory methods for hsCRP, ELISA for cytokines, sputum and plasma concentration with HPLC at the end of rehabilitation, 6 and 12 months<br> 5. Oxidative stress is measured by enzyme immunoassay techniques at the end of rehabilitation, 6 and 12 months<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Chest kinematics is measured using thoracic circumference at the end of the rehabilitation and at 6 and 12 months<br> 2. Lung mechanics is measured using lung function at the end of the rehabilitation and at 6 and 12 months<br> 3. Peripheral and respiratory muscle function is measured using grip strength and peripheral muscle force measurement at the end of the rehabilitation and at 6 and 12 months<br> 4.
