Effect Of Oxygen-Supply On The 6-Minute-Walking-Distance in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) GOLD Stage III/IV Before And After A Multimodal Rehabilitation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating 6MWT with oxygen and 6MWT with medical air for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Completed, enrolled 127 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the six-minute-walking-distance of COPD-patients with breathing oxygen in comparison to breathing normal air. Patients, who increase their walking-distance about more than 15% or 35m only because of breathing oxygen, are so-called "Oxygen Responders." The study is aimed to find attributes of Oxygen Responder and to investigate, if a patient can change the "respond" with higher performance and endurance.
