Sponsor's own description

Patients with chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) suffer from a progressive loss of lung function that leads to poor quality of life, and often invalidity and early death. Regular exercise can improve quality of life in these patients, but the health care system lack the underlying mechanism of exercise-induced improvement in COPD and it is widely thought not to have any effect on lung function. The aim of the present study is to investigate to which extent lung tissue mass and rest-to-exercise diffusion capacity changes differ in COPD patients compared to the healthy state. In order to design prospective clinical trials on the putative impact of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) investigating these parameters, and a secondary aim is to assess the feasibility of such a study in terms of patient inclusion, adherence and methodology.
