Pulmonary rehabilitation for management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

A 61-year-old black woman with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is referred for enrollment in a pulmonary rehabilitation program. Pulmonary rehabilitation includes high-intensity exercise to improve muscle function and reduce dynamic hyperinflation of the lungs, as well as education to promote collaborative self-management strategies. Patients with unstable angina or recent myocardial infarction may not be good candidates for pulmonary rehabilitation.
