To examine the feasibility of progressive unilateral knee-extension strength training using ankle weight cuffs in patients hospitalized due to acute exacerbation in COPD
We decided that feasibility is indicated if: 1) the absolute training loads increase progressively, 2) more than 80% of the planned training sessions are completed, and 3)if the absolute training loads do not exceed 20 kg (2 x10kg weight cuffs) for 90% of patients.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Resistance training in AECOPD | Experimental | The patients conduct daily training during admission with weight cuff 3 set of 10 rep. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resistance training in AECOPD | Other | The patients begin training on day 1 of admittance. The training consists of knee extension performed in the sitting position on the bed with a 90 degrees of flexion of the knees. The weight cuffs are tired to the angles with a weight corresponding to 10 RM (the weight lifted 10 times). The weights and exercises are subjected to supervision on daily basis by the physiotherapist. The weight is increased after every set of training if more than 10 rep. can be performed with a given weight. Limitations to exercise is also recorded along with the degree of dyspnoea as assessed by the Borg CR10, possible oxygen supplementation and saturation is recorded before and following exercise. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Increase of training load during admission | Change in training loads measured by the number of kilos lifted using ankle weight cuffs in 3 sets of 10 repetition maximum at the first training day to the number of kilos lifted at the last training day | The patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 6 days |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Maximal isometric knee extension strength | Maximal isometric knee extension strength is measured unilaterally by a fixated handheld dynamometer. The test will be performed upon admission and at the day of discharge | The patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 6 days |

| Sit-to- stand- test |
The number of times the patient comes to full standing position in 30 seconds. The Sit to Stand test provides a measurement of a person's lower body (particularly quadriceps) strength. This is associated with the ability to perform lifestyle tasks such as climbing stairs, getting in and out of a vehicle or bath. The test will be performed upon admission and on the day of discharge |
| The patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 6 days |
| Timed Up and Go (TUG) | A test used to assess a person's mobility and requires both static and dynamic balance. The time that a person takes to rise from a chair, walk three metres, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit Down. The test will be performed at admission and at the day of discharge | The patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 6 days |
