Brief Summary

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

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationship between handgrip strength and air trapping in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The main question it aims to answer is:

• Is handgrip strength correlated with air trapping in COPD patients? Participants will perform handgrip strength test and lung volume measurement.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a cross-sectional study in COPD patients. COPD patients aged 40 years or older were included. Handgrip strength test and lung volume measurement will be tested in each patient. Handgrip strength will be measured using a hand dynamometer. Lung volume will be assessed using a body plethysmograph.
