Severe acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) can have a negative impact on functional capacity, symptoms and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). This study aimed to i) investigate the recovery of muscle strength, functional capacity, symptoms, and HRQOL in patients after a severe AECOPD; ii) compare with matched ...

The 20-m 6-min-walk test (6MWT20) is a valid, reliable alternative for functional capacity assessment; however, its responsiveness and minimally important difference (MID) have yet to be investigated. The aim of this study was to assess the responsiveness and MID of the 6MWT20 in individuals with COPD. Fifty-three subjects completed the study from ...

Background: Medication adherence to inhalation medication is suboptimal in patients with COPD and asthma. Shared decision making (SDM) is proposed as an intervention to improve medication adherence. Despite its wide promotion, evidence of SDM’s association with greater medication adherence is scarce. Also, it is unknown to what degree patients pres...
