  The purpose of this study was to verify whether mortality in patients with advanced COPD could be reduced by a personalized pulmonary rehab program in the hospital which includes OT to prevent desaturation and sympathetic nerve activation during daily activities. Personalized patient-specific PR programs were designed and included an OT to reduce the oxygen consumption during daily activities. The study concluded that PPR-OT reduced mortality rates in patients at 5 years and 7 years (18.8% and 28.2%) compared to the control group (34% and 44.7%).
