Abstract Abstract Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may have a limited level of physical activity in daily life (PADL) and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The interrelationships of these variables should be measure by cluster analysis to characterize this population and enable rehabilitation programs to target each patient profile identified.




Conclusions: To conclude, three phenotypes were found, with one indicating disproportionality between PADL and HRQOL.
