Sponsor's own description
The aim of the study will be to verify whether the addition of an exercise program aimed to improve balance can reduce the risk of falling in subjects with COPD over 80 years of age compared to the standard rehabilitation program. Patients will be randomly assigned in two groups (intervention and control). The pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) program is organized in accordance with current guidelines.
