It is well documented that plasma ammonia accumulates during exercise under conditions of metabolic stress. Metabolic stress (when skeletal muscle ATP supply fails to meet demand) occurs at low work rates during cycling in patients with COPD, but not been described during walking. Walking is an important activity for many patients with COPD and is commonly prescribed in pragmatic outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation programmes. In this study we explored whether metabolic stress occurs during incremental walking at the low work rates these patients achieve.
