To evaluate if there is an increase in 6-minute walk distance in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) while walking to rhythmically enhanced music.
Individuals with COPD are less active. Walking with rhythmically enhanced music may help Participant's walk farther while simultaneously distracting from symptoms of dyspnea.
Twenty-five men (age = 70.7 ± 4.5 yr), with moderate-to-severe COPD (FEV1 = 47.4 ± 9.7% predicted) completed three, 6 min walk tests (6MWT) in random order. Walks were completed with music, with music that was rhythmically enhanced, or without music. Walking distance and perceived dyspnea were measured.
Participant's walked 12 m, 95% CI [20.5-, 2.6], p = 0.015 further during the 6MWT when listening to rhythmically enhanced music when compared to no music. Onset of dyspnea was not different between the three walking conditions.
Rhythmically-enhanced music may be a useful tool to increase walking distance in Participant's with COPD.
评估慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）患者在随节奏增强的音乐行走时，6 分钟步行距离是否增加。
COPD 患者的活动量较少。随节奏增强的音乐行走可能有助于患者走得更远，同时分散呼吸困难的症状。
25 名男性（年龄=70.7±4.5 岁），患有中重度 COPD（FEV1=47.4±9.7%预计值），以随机顺序完成了 3 次 6 分钟步行测试（6MWT）。以音乐、节奏增强的音乐或没有音乐的方式进行行走测试，测量行走距离和感知的呼吸困难。
与没有音乐相比，参与者在听节奏增强的音乐时，6MWT 中多走了 12 米，95%CI [20.5，2.6]，p=0.015。三种行走条件下呼吸困难的起始时间没有差异。
节奏增强的音乐可能是增加 COPD 患者行走距离的有用工具。
