| description | This thesis looked at translating the Arabic version of a questionnaire that measures breathlessness for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It also looked at whether this translated version changed between a period when people with COPD were hospitalised and when they were clinically stable. In addition, this thesis explored measures of physical activity and sedentary behaviour in people with COPD and compared the measures with healthy people. |
