Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
pulmonary exercises group at home
The physiotherapist will only demonstrate the breathing and posture exercises that patients in the control group will perform at home.
Pulmonary and posture exercises at home
The physiotherapist will demonstrate the breathing and posture exercises to be performed at home.
cardiopulmonary exercises group at hospital
The working group will be provided with a personalised exercise plan by a physiotherapist specialising in that field at the cardiopulmonary rehabilitation unit, to be carried out twice a week for five weeks. Patients will work on a bicycle ergometer. In addition, the same physiotherapist will demonstrate breathing and posture exercises for patients to perform at home.
Cardiopulmonary exercises at hospital
Patients will exercise using a bicycle ergometer. In addition, the same physiotherapist will demonstrate breathing and posture exercises for them to perform at home.
