Özet

Purpose: 'Combined COPD Assessment' in the classification of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was proposed as a new method by The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (GOLD). The aim of this study was to evaluate exercise capacity, and muscle strength (respiratory and peripheral muscle strength) between two groups (Group B and C) of the new GOLD combined COPD assessment in this study.
