Brief Summary

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lung, characterized by chronic cough, dyspnea, and sputum production, which often misunderstood as aging or catching a cold. These symptoms may be progressive over time. To provide better disease management and early detecting, pulmonary rehabilitation is now considered a fundamental component of the integrated disease management of this population. However, few studies have evaluated the beneficial outcomes in patients referred to pulmonary rehabilitation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical outcomes in patients referred to pulmonary rehabilitation in National Taiwan University Hospital.
