TL;DR: The 12-week semiautomated PA telecoaching intervention was well accepted and feasible for patients with COPD and their coaches, and the actual usage of the step counter was excellent, whereas actualusage of the smartphone tasks was lower and decreased over time.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Physical activity measures and hourly patterns in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are heterogeneous and couch potatoes were characterised by higher BMI, lower FEV1, worse dyspnoea and higher ADO index compared to other clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenotypic Characterization and Course of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in the PAC-COPD Study: Design and Methods
TL;DR: The Phenotype and Course of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (PAC- COPD) study aims to improve the understanding of the phenotypic heterogeneity of this disease and the extent to which this heterogeneity is related to clinical course.
Journal ArticleDOI
