Results: 14 chronic obstrictive pulmonary disease(copd),9 chronic lung disease other than COPD( 4bronchiectasis, 3 interstitial lung disease,2kyphoscoliosis )with median age of 61.5 and mean 61.46 years were evaluated.Improvement on MMRC mmrc dyspnea scale, shuttle walking test (mean 57m), epworth sleepiness scale and 11 point regression on quality of life questionnaire were detected., There were no significant differences in terms of the outcomes of COPD and non COPD patients who received pulmonary rehabilitation. Conclution: COPD patients are more frequently to guide topulmonary rehabilitation . but non COPD patients with decresased exercise capacity has shown significant effects for the perception of dyspnoea and exercise capacity.
