Creatine supplementation and physical training in patients with COPD: a double blind, placebo-controlled study.

abstract：Introduction:Training in correct inhaler use, ideally in person or by video demonstration, can minimize errors but is rarely provided in clinics. This open-label, low-intervention study evaluated critical error rates with dry-powder inhalers (DPIs), before and after training, in patients with chronic obstructive pulmon...
