Eligibility

Age
40 Years to 75 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: We will test 21 patients to reach a final eligible 7 patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease stage severe or very-severe and aged 40 to 75 years ; free of exacerbation for at least 2 months; on regular use of prescription drugs; should be able to perform spirometry and exercise testing; both gender; without important comorbidities like other chronic obstructive lung disease or cardiopathy; free of chronic domiciliar oxygen therapy

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patient with ischemic heart disease ; recent myocardial infarction; pulmonary arterial hypertension; uncontrolled systemic hypertension; diabetes mellitus or anemia ; furthermore can not participate in the study patients with severe aortic stenosis or musculoskeletal or rheumatic diseases and inability to use cycle ergometer for any reason

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Kinetics of oxygen consumption before and after intervention like time constant ; a monoexponential kinetics will be measured by analyzing the adjustment of oxygen consumption by measuring specific mathematical parameters such time constant, time delay and amplitude of the response; we expect to find an increase about 10% of the time constant and a reduction in amplitude of the same magnitude after tachypnea-induced hyperinflation and a reduction of the same magnitude for both after pre-exercise non invasive ventilation

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Exercise time after the intervention, set on a cycle ergometer at a load of 70 to 80% of the maximum load reached in the incremental test, measured in minutes; we expect to reach a increase of 10% of this time after deinflation of the lungs by non invasive ventilation and a decrease in average 10% of this time in the case of induced hyperventilation and hyperinflation
