Pulmonary rehabilitation has proven beneficial for patients with chronic airway obstruction. In this study, the authors evaluate the effect of rehabilitation in elderly patients. Results show that the change in exercise capacity was not related to the patients' age, and suggest that age alone should not be an exclusionary criterion.
