Exercise Training

for Right Ventricular Dysfunction in COPD

This study plans to learn more about heart function among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In particular, the investigators want to understand the different patterns of right ventricular response to pulmonary hypertension (high pressure in the lungs) during rest and exercise. By identifying patterns of right ventricular dysfunction, this study will help identify better treatments for patients with COPD in the future.

High-Intensity Interval Training

for Respiratory Diseases

Some military personnel who have been exposed to burn pit emissions, desert dust, and other airborne hazards experience new respiratory symptoms after deployment. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about exercise in veterans with new respiratory symptoms after deployment to Southwest Asia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do veterans with new respiratory symptoms after deployment have heart or lung abnormalities that contribute to difficulty exercising? 2. Does high-intensity interval training (HIIT) improve fitness and symptoms? Study participants will complete the following: 1. Study Visits 1A and 1B: Exercise test (VO2max test), echocardiogram (heart ultrasound), blood tests, questionnaires 2.
