Pulmonary rehabilitation is an effective intervention for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is usually available only through selected hospitals. A pilot study was undertaken to see if pulmonary rehabilitation performed by the primary health care team in one practice was feasible. Fourteen patients were recruited; 13 completed the programme and one year of follow-up. The programme was well received by patients and staff. There were not enough suitable patients among a practice list of 10,500 to justify the running of this programme for a single practice; one primary care group would suffice
