Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the implementation of walking urban circuits in increasing the level of physical activity and exercise capacity in severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients after being enrolled in a pulmonary rehabilitation program.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

rehabilitation program more the urban circuit

One group, the urban circuit group (UCG), received a triptych that included urban walking circuits,the remaining patients formed the non circuit group (NCG).These circuits can be obtained on the website http://www.mataro.cat/web/portal/ca/salut/salut\_publica/itineraris/index

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

rehabilitation more the urban circuit

Intervention Type OTHER

included in a standard rehabilitation program + the urban circuit. A total of 32 urban walking circuits were developed jointly with the town hall of Mataró(124,000 in habitants)and were included in a triptych called "A PEU, FEM SALUT! Itineraris urbans per Mataró" http://www.mataro.cat/web/portal/ca/salut/salut\_publica/itineraris/index
