Evolution of Pulsed Oxygen Saturation During Interval Training Compared to Continuous Training in COPD Patients

Continuous training consists of a 5 minute warm up, 5 minute cool down and 20 minutes of moderate intensity work. The workload is set at 60% of the patient's maximum power

Interval training consists of a 5-minute warm-up, a 5-minute cool-down and 20 minutes of alternating 60 seconds of high-intensity work (100% of the maximum power recorded in the incremental test that was carried out when the patient was admitted to the pulmonary rehabilitation department) and 60 seconds of unloaded pedalling or rest.
