Brief Summary: This study aims to determine if patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD exhibit altered muscle properties specifically changes in tone and stiffness in both their respiratory muscles and skeletal muscles when compared to healthy individuals The study will utilize the Myotonometer a non-invasive device to assess these properties
Detailed Description: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD leads to progressive airflow limitation and respiratory muscle dysfunction contributing to exercise intolerance and reduced quality of life While existing methods evaluate overall lung function the assessment of specific respiratory muscle properties remains challenging Myotonometry offers a non-invasive technique to quantify muscle tone and stiffness potentially providing insights into respiratory and skeletal muscle mechanics in COPD This study aims to explore differences in the mechanical properties of both superficial respiratory and skeletal muscles in patients with COPD compared to healthy controls using myotonometry Investigators hypothesize that COPD patients will exhibit altered mechanical properties eg increased stiffness and tone in both superficial respiratory and skeletal muscles compared to healthy controls
