Abstract

The purpose of the study was the assessment of the proposed physical therapy on physical capacity of pa- tients having severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). One hundred and twenty-four (124) pa- tients having severe COPD were examined. All patients underwent standard clinical, laboratory and functional examination. Physical capacity of patients was assessed by the 6-minutes walking distance (6MWD). Application of physical therapy with patients having COPD resulted in a statistically significant greater dynamics of growth of the distance traveled at 6 MWD with both men - by 104.66-9.24 m (at standard treatment - by 57.07-8.99 m; p <0.001), and women - by 81.17-8.35 m (at standard treatment - by 44.97-6.67 m; p<0.001). Compared to standard treatment, patients of the main group increased their physical capacity (both men and women) 1.8 times, and the achieved state of their physical abilities (511.2-9.38 m; 100.9-1, 96% of the appropriate value (AV)) significantly exceeded the one at standard treatment (481.5-10.59 m; 94.57-1.99% of AV; p<0.01). Physical therapy, which is used with patients having severe COPD, results in an increase in their physical abilities, which significantly improve compared to standard treatment.
