Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung disease that makes it difficult for people to breathe, since small airways in their lungs become blocked. This can make patients gasp for breath or breathe at a higher than usual rate to try to get oxygen. A common treatment for this problem is to have patients breathe oxygen through breathing tubes. We have a sample of COPD patients who naturally breathe at the same rate. Each patient walks on a treadmill...
