Effects of various exercise therapies on 6-min walk distance in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
14-11-2025CONCLUSION: Water-based exercise was the most effective intervention for improving the 6MWD of COPD patients. Optimal results required managing frequency (≥3 times/week, ideally 5 times/week), session duration (≥60 min, ideally 90 min), 8 weeks, and a total of 270 min/week. Older patients (≤61.67 years) benefited more. This study supported individualized, evidence-based exercise rehabilitation strategies for COPD.
