Purpose
The principal aim of the study is to evaluate whether attendance at an exercise training and education programme (known as pulmonary rehabilitation) shortly following hospital discharge can lead to a reduction in exacerbations and improvement in exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Non-outpatient COPD related hospital attendance (A+E attendance, inpatient admission or death) [ Time Frame: 3-months ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Disease specific quality of life (CRDQ and SGRQ) [ Time Frame: 3 months and 1-year ]
- Maximal walking capacity (ISW)and endurance walking capacity (ESW) [ Time Frame: 3-months and 1-year ]
- Weight and fat free mass (electrical bioimpedance) [ Time Frame: 3-months and 1-year ]
- Quadriceps muscle strength (volitional and non-volitional) [ Time Frame: 3-months and 1-year ]
- Cost-effectiveness (Index derived from EQ-5D) [ Time Frame: 3-months and 1-year ]

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients admitted to King's College Hospital with a clinical diagnosis of acute exacerbation of COPD. Patients with radiological and microbiological evidence of pneumonia with co−existing COPD will also be included.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Significant co−morbidity that could limit exercise training & testing: Patients unable to walk due to a comorbid neuromuscular or rheumatological condition; patients with severe sensory and cognitive impairment; patients with unstable angina or aortic valve disease in which exercise could be dangerous.
- Attendance at a pulmonary rehabilitation programme in the preceding year.
