A 61-year-old woman is referred for pulmonary consultation. She smoked one pack of cigarettes a day for 45 years but quit a year ago. For 2 years she has noted progres-sive exertional dyspnea, with breathlessness occurring when she is walking up one flight of stairs or hurrying on level ground. A diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmo-nary disease (COPD) was made a year ago, and she was treated with inhaled medica-tions. She is sedentary and recently gained 15 lb (6.8 kg); her only frequent social activity is playing cards. Her physical examination is normal except for a weight of 195 lb (88.5 kg) (body-mass index [the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters], 32) and for decreased breath sounds and prolonged expiration on chest auscultation. Spirometry reveals moderate airway obstruction; an echocardio-gram is normal. The pulmonary consultant recommends enrollment in a pulmonary rehabilitation program.

The Clinic a l Problem

COPD currently ranks fourth as a cause of death in the United States1 and is on course to be the third most common cause of death worldwide by 2020.2 Whereas COPD was once principally a disease of men, it now kills roughly equal numbers of men and women in the United States. In 2000, COPD was responsible for 8 million physician office visits, 1.5 million emergency department visits, and 726,000 hospi-talizations (about 13% of total hospitalizations)3; it is second only to coronary heart disease as a reason for payment of Social Security disability benefits.

Exercise intolerance resulting from dyspnea or fatigue is often the chief symptom reported by patients with COPD. The degree of exercise intolerance roughly parallels the severity of the disease, but exercise intolerance is also distinctly present in pa-tients with only mild disease.4 The extent to which quality of life is impaired is reflected in patients’ symptoms, decreased functional status, and frequency of exac-erbations.

Pathoph ysiol ogy a nd Effec t of Ther a py

Although COPD primarily affects lung function, it often has extrapulmonary man-ifestations.5 Principal among these systemic manifestations is skeletal-muscle dys-function,6 especially in the leg muscles involved with ambulation. Examination of leg-muscle tissue has revealed distinct abnormalities: decreased aerobic enzyme activity,7 a low fraction of type I (aerobic) fibers, decreased capillarity, the presence



of inflammatory cells, and increased apoptosis.8

These defects tend to reduce aerobic capacity, which is manifested in the early onset of lactic acidosis.9 Muscle fatigue occurs at work rates that would not engender fatigue in healthy sub-jects. It has been shown that in an appreciable fraction of patients with COPD, muscle fatigue rather than dyspnea is the primary factor limiting exercise tolerance.10 It is likely that the primary cause of these muscle abnormalities is decondi-tioning11 (patients with COPD are often very sed-entary), but other COPD-specific factors probably contribute as well.

Pulmonary rehabilitation does not directly im-prove lung mechanics or gas exchange.12 Rather, it optimizes the function of other body systems so that the effect of lung dysfunction is mini-mized13 (Fig. 1). High-intensity rehabilitative exer-cise programs improve muscle function by induc-ing chang es in muscle biochemistry. As a result, higher work rates can be tolerated without appre-ciable lactic acidosis.9 For patients in whom am-bulatory muscle dysfunction is a primary limita-tion, delayed fatigue directly enhances exercise tolerance. For patients in whom ventilatory limi-tation is primary, decreased lactic acidosis at a given level of exercise decreases ventilatory de-mand, probably by means of decreased carotid-body stimulation.9

Dyspnea is also mitigated by reducing dynamic hyperinflation, which results when exercise leads to increased ventilatory demand and inadequate time is allowed for expiration, given the limita-tions on expiratory airflow. End-expiratory and, therefore, end-inspiratory lung volume is forced to increase progressively. When end-inspiratory lung volume approaches the limiting volume (total lung capacity), the elastic work of breath-ing and dyspnea increase markedly. Exercise train-ing lowers ventilatory demand, resulting in a slowing of respiration at a given level of exercise. With a longer expiratory time there is less dynam-ic hyperinflation and, therefore, less dyspnea.14

Pulmonary rehabilitation also works through other, less well-defined mechanisms. Exercise pro-grams often result in desensitization to dyspnea (a decrease in the perception of dyspnea for a given task).15 Factors hypothesized to contribute to this desensitization include the antidepressant effect of exercise as well as the social interaction and distraction from dyspneic sensations that oc-cur during exercise with a group of patients who

have the same condition. In addition, rehabilita-tion programs typically incorporate edu cation in the development of self-management strategies, an approach that involves a partnership between the patient and health professionals to system-

Figure 1. Targets of Exercise Training as Part of a Pulmo-nary Rehabilitation Program for Patients with COPD.

Exercise training does not improve lung function, but it does ease other manifestations of COPD, increasing exercise tolerance, reducing dyspnea, and improving quality of life. Improved skeletal-muscle function is re-lated, in part, to a reversal of deconditioning. Exercise training improves aerobic function of the muscles of ambulation. Dyspnea is mitigated by the reduction in dynamic hyperinflation that occurs when exercise- induced increases in the rate and depth of breathing result in inadequate time for full expiration, given the high expiratory airflow resistance. End-expiratory lung volume rises, and exercise is terminated when end- inspiratory lung volume approaches levels at which the high elastic work of breathing causes severe dyspnea. Exercise training reduces the ventilatory requirement and respiratory rate during heavy exercise, prolonging the time allowed for expiration and reducing dynamic hyperinflation. Desensitization to dyspnea occurs cen-trally as a result of exercise training; the underlying mechanism is uncertain. Decreased anxiety and de-pression are thought to result from increased exercise capacity and consequent increases in activities of daily living, coupled with feelings of mastery.

atically manage the symptoms of the disease.16

This approach promotes adaptive behaviors, such as abstinence from smoking, better adherence to pharmacologic and exercise therapy, and earlier recognition and treatment of COPD exacerba-tions. Self-management education has been shown to reduce the use of health care services and costs among patients with moderate-to-severe COPD and a history of hospitalizations.16,17

Clinic a l E v idence

Many clinical trials have examined the benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation, although virtually all of them were single-center trials of modest size. Demonstrations of benefit are based on random-ized, controlled (though unblinded) studies. For three outcomes, the benefit is unequivocal18: exer-cise capacity (in incremental, constant work rate, and timed walking tests), severity of dyspnea, and health-related quality of life. For these three out-comes, the magnitude of benefit is generally su-perior to any other COPD therapy.

A recent meta-analysis by Lacasse et al. sum-marized 31 randomized, controlled trials of pul-monary rehabilitation.19 In 11 trials involving 618 participants, health-related quality of life was evaluated with the use of the Chronic Respira-tory Disease Questionnaire (CRQ).20 Improve-ments were demonstrated in the four domains evaluated by this instrument: dyspnea, fatigue, emotional function, and mastery (the patient’s feeling of control over the disease). The average effect size was 1.5 to 2.1 times the estimated minimum clinically important difference between the treatment and control groups. In 16 trials in-volving 669 participants, the weighted mean im-provement in functional exercise capacity, as-sessed on the basis of the distance walked in 6 minutes, was 48 m. This approximated the es-timated minimum clinically important difference of 50 m.

Individual studies of the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation have shown reductions in hospital-ization and other measures of health care use21,22

and improvements in cost-effective ness.23 Reduc-tions in depression and anxiety and improve-ments in cognitive function and self-efficacy have been reported in trials specifically investigating these outcomes.24 A survival benefit has not been demonstrated with pulmonary rehabilitation, al-though the randomized trials that have examined

survival were relatively small and were under-powered to detect this effect.18

Clinic a l Use

The most common model for pulmonary rehabili-tation in the United States is a multidisciplinary, hospital-based outpatient program, as originally developed and implemented by Petty et al.25 Pul-monary rehabilitation is also provided in home-based, community-based, and inpatient settings. Program staffing varies but generally centers on a coordinator, who is typically trained in nursing, respiratory therapy, or physical therapy. The suc-cessful coordinator has excellent interpersonal skills, since (at least initially) a primary task is to motivate people to do what they may find un-pleasant. Generally, a pulmonologist oversees the program.

Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) is not the sole criterion for selecting patients for pulmonary rehabilitation,24 but patients who are typically referred for rehabilitation in the United States have stage 3 (severe) disease according to the four-stage Global Initiative for Chronic Ob-structive Lung Disease (GOLD) classification of severity (Table 1).2 However, those with milder disease may have distinct exercise intolerance that can be remediated with pulmonary rehabilitation. Patients whose disease is classified as stage 4 (very severe) may also be appropriate candidates,26

although special efforts may be required to pro-vide them with activities that are commensurate with their reduced exercise tolerance. Selection for pulmonary rehabilitation may also focus on patients whose dyspnea is out of proportion to

Table 1. Spirometric Classification of COPD Severity on the Basis of Post-Bronchodilator FEV1.*

Stage and Severity Definition

I — mild FEV1/FVC <0.70, FEV1 ≥80% of predicted

II — moderate FEV1/FVC <0.70, 50% ≤FEV1 <80% of predicted

III — severe FEV1/FVC <0.70, 30% ≤FEV1 <50% of predicted

IV — very severe FEV1/FVC <0.70, FEV1 <30% of predicted or FEV1 <50% of predicted plus chronic respiratory failure

* Respiratory failure is defined as an arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) that is less than 8.0 kPa (60 mm Hg), with or without an arterial partial pres-sure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) that is greater than 6.7 kPa (50 mm Hg), while the patient is breathing ambient air at sea level.2 COPD denotes chronic ob-structive pulmonary disease, FEV1 forced expiratory volume in 1 second, and FVC forced vital capacity.



the severity of their disease and on those for whom leg fatigue is the symptom that limits ex-ercise tolerance.27

In general, pulmonary rehabilitation is not rec-ommended for patients who are unable to walk (because of orthopedic or neurologic disorders) or those with unstable cardiac disease (unstable angina or recent myocardial infarction). Other relative contraindications include cognitive or psy-chiatric problems that would prevent the patient from comprehending or cooperating with the treatment plan. Some programs exclude active smokers, although there are no convincing data that support this decision.28

Many rehabilitation programs feature three directly supervised sessions per week, each last-ing 3 to 4 hours. The duration of most programs ranges from 6 to 12 weeks, although some stud-ies suggest that longer programs may provide additional and more durable benefits.24 Program participation begins with clinical assessments by the medical director and rehabilitation coor-dinator, with reevaluation at intervals to gauge the patient’s progress toward individualized ex-ercise and educational goals. An argument can be made for an initial formal cardiopulmonary exercise test,29 which provides information on the mechanism and severity of exercise intolerance, helps identify any cardiovascular or other contra-indications to a rigorous exercise program, indi-cates whether there is a need for supplemental oxygen, and provides a guide for the intensity of the exercises prescribed.

The exercise program is the centerpiece of pulmonary rehabilitation. Endurance exercise of the leg muscles is the main focus, with walking, stationary cycling, and treadmill exercise com-monly performed. High-intensity regimens are generally preferred, with initial targets of at least 60% of the maximum exercise tolerance,13 although lower-intensity exercise is also benefi-cial. Exercise intensity is increased as tolerated under the observation of rehabilitation staff. A resistance-exercise component is also often in-cluded18; improved leg strength aids in some activities of daily living and may lessen the risk of falls (although this benefit has yet to be dem-onstrated in clinical trials). Resistance training that involves the upper arms is also useful,18 both because it facilitates the ability to carry out the activities of daily living and because some of the upper-arm muscles also serve as auxiliary mus-

cles of respiration.30 Respiratory-muscle training was once common, but it is now known that even with improvement of respiratory-muscle strength, functional capacity usually does not improve.18

Ancillary measures have been added to the training routine to increase the intensity of exer-cise. In this regard, optimal bronchodilation dur-ing exercise sessions seems prudent.31 The use of supplemental oxygen during training sessions, even in patients without substantial exercise de-saturation, reduces ventilatory demand.32 Other interventions that are being studied include the use of noninvasive ventilatory support, heliox (an inhaled mixture of helium and oxygen), ventila-tory-pattern feedback, and anabolic steroids.33,34

Education is included in pulmonary rehabili-tation to improve the patient’s understanding of the disease and its treatment and to promote col-laborative self-management strategies.16-18 Exam-ples of the latter include cessation of smoking, incorporation of exercise and increased physical activity in the home setting, promotion of the importance of adherence to therapy, and devel-opment of an action plan for earlier detection and treatment of COPD exacerbations. Since anxiety and depression are common in patients with COPD who are referred for pulmonary rehabili-tation, many programs include a psychosocial component based on the needs of the individual patient.

Patients with COPD cachexia, characterized by involuntary weight loss and depletion of lean body mass, have a very poor prognosis. Nutrition-al supplementation is often offered to such pa-tients, but this approach has had only limited ef-ficacy in clinical trials.35 The appetite stimulant megestrol acetate has been shown to increase body weight, but the weight gain typically consists of fat mass only.36 Furthermore, overweight patients, as compared with those of normal weight, tend to have ventilatory limitation at low er exercise in-tensities because of the increased metabolic cost of activity. Weight-loss strategies are often rec-ommended as part of pulmonary rehabilitation, although evidence of efficacy is lacking.

The increased exercise tolerance — and atten-dant benefits — gained during rehabilitation will recede within months after the program’s end if patients resume their formerly sedentary life-style. Maintenance programs have been devised to help combat this tendency37; these programs often include exercise classes that meet at regu-



lar intervals. Many patients who complete pul-monary rehabilitation programs highly value the improvement in their condition and are success-ful in altering their lifestyle to maintain it, but reliable estimates of the percentage of partici-pants who achieve this lifestyle alteration are not available.

Currently, pulmonary rehabilitation programs are available for only a small fraction of patients with COPD who could potentially benefit from this approach; program availability is particu-larly problematic among lower-income, minority, and rural populations. A roadblock to achieving widespread availability in the United States has been the lack of a uniform funding policy. The cost of pulmonary rehabilitation has not been extensively documented; a recent report indicates that the average cost for a program with an aver-age duration of 8 weeks in the National Emphy-sema Treatment Trial was about $2,200 per par-ticipant.38 Reimbursement from third-party payers varies regionally. It is hoped that the recent pas-sage of legislation designed to improve Medicare funding policy, to be implemented by January 2010, will increase access to pulmonary rehabili-tation programs.39

A dv er se Effec t s

No data from a registry of serious adverse events occurring during pulmonary rehabilitation have been published, but the widespread clinical im-pression is that these events are relatively rare. The principal risks of pulmonary rehabilitation programs are related to the exercise component of such programs. Musculoskeletal injury is a risk, since patients with COPD tend to be elderly and are often debilitated. This risk is reduced when rehabilitation is supervised by trained per-sonnel. Exercise-induced bronchospasm occurs in some patients with COPD, and judicious use of bronchodilators before or during exercise may be appropriate. Perhaps the most important risk is that of a cardiovascular event (e.g., myocardial ischemia or infarction, arrhythmia, or even sud-den cardiac death). Patients with COPD have a substantially increased risk of cardiovascular death, as compared with healthy age-matched controls.40,41 Before a patient starts an exercise program, evaluation for ischemic heart disease by means of a stress test is advisable.

A r e a s of Uncerta in t y

Most patients with COPD can benefit from a pul-monary rehabilitation program. Although some reports suggest that one quarter to one third of patients do not have a response to such a pro-gram,42,43 the criteria for defining nonresponse have not been firmly established. Studies that have attempted to define subgroups of patients who will benefit from pulmonary rehabilitation have not identified any important predictors of a response to treatment.42,43

In cross-sectional studies, patients with COPD who have better exercise tolerance, less dyspnea, and lower rates of hospitalization have higher survival rates.44-46 Since pulmonary rehabilitation provides these benefits,18 it would be reasonable to suppose that it might impart a survival advan-tage. However, a randomized, adequately pow-ered trial required to detect a modest (but clini-cally important) survival advantage has yet to be performed.18,47

Patients with high levels of physical activity have been found to use fewer health care resourc-es and to have a lower risk of death,48 making this a desirable goal in pulmonary rehabilitation. However, although re habilitation unequivocally increases exercise capacity, it is less clear wheth-er this beneficial effect translates into increased daily physical ac tivity at home. Studies using ac-tivity monitors to evaluate the extent of patients’ physical activity outside the study environment have had mixed results.49-51

The benefits in exercise capacity and health status realized from pulmonary rehabilitation tend to decline in the months after the interven-tion.18 Other than prolonging the formal pro-gram of pulmonary rehabilitation (which is not often feasible in the United States), it is unclear how best to maintain the benefits in the long term. Low-cost maintenance programs are a fea-ture of many established rehabilitation programs. The self-management approach of incorporating exercise training in the home setting shows promise, but its benefits need to be confirmed.

Guidelines

Several documents summarize current knowl-edge regarding pulmonary rehabilitation prac-tice: the American Thoracic Society–European



Respiratory Society Statement on Pulmonary Re-habilitation,13 Pulmonary Rehabilitation: Joint American College of Chest Physicians–American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines,18 State of the Art: Pulmonary Reha-bilitation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Dis-ease,24 and the British Thoracic Society Statement on Pulmonary Rehabilitation.52 All these state-ments conclude that pulmonary rehabilitation has been proven beneficial in reducing dyspnea and improving functional capacity and quality of life for patients with COPD. Pulmonary rehabilitation is also recommended for patients with symptom-atic COPD by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease2 and in the American Thoracic Society–European Respiratory Society Statement on Standards for Diagnosis and Treat-ment of Patients with COPD.53

R ecommendations

The patient in the vignette is an appropriate can-didate for pulmonary rehabilitation, and we would recommend that she be enrolled in an outpatient, hospital-based program. Before she begins treat-

ment, a stress test for cardiovascular evaluation, perhaps in the form of a cardiopulmonary exer-cise test, should be performed. Useful, but not mandatory, preprogram assessments include ini-tial measurements of functional capacity (e.g., by means of a 6-minute walk test) and health-relat-ed quality of life (e.g., with the CRQ). She should then begin an 8-week program consisting of 24 sessions held for 3 hours each 3 times a week. In the exercise component of the program, we would include relatively high-intensity treadmill and stationary-cycle ergometer training as well as lower-intensity calisthenics. A self-management strategy for future COPD exacerbations should also be formulated, focusing on early recognition and treatment of exacerbations. At the end of the program, the 6-minute walk test and CRQ might be readministered and reassessed. After the pa-tient has completed the formal program, we would strongly advise her to attend maintenance exer-cise sessions and to participate in a support group for patients with COPD.

How to Calculate the Cost of Your Ad

We define a word as one or more letters bound by spaces. The following gives some typical examples:

Bradley S. Smith III, MD...... = 5 wordsSend CV ................................. = 2 wordsDecember 10, 2007 ............... = 3 words617-555-1234 ......................... = 1 wordObstetrician/Gynecologist ... = 1 wordA ............................................. = 1 wordDalton, MD 01622 ................. = 3 words

As a further example here is a typical ad and how the pricing for each insertion is calculated:

This advertisement is 58 words: at $5.80 per word it equals $336.40. Because a reply box

was requested there is an additional charge of $55.00 for each insertion. The price is then $391.40 for each insertion of the ad. This ad will be placed under the Chiefs/Di rectors/ Department Heads classification.
