Abstract
Dynamic hyperinflation during exercise was reduced after LVRS (up to 3 years) and there was a strong association between alterations in breathing pattern and reduced DH after LVRS. This is the first study to demonstrate that reductions in DH correlated with improved exercise performance following LVRS.
