Brief summary: The aim of this study is to investigate body awareness and functional movement in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy controls.

Detailed description: It is aimed at investigating body awareness, and functional movement, and related factors in patients with COPD. The secondary purpose is to determine correlations between body awareness and functional movement, respiratory muscle strength and endurance, daily living activities, posture, and pain threshold in this study. The determination of correlations between functional movement, respiratory pattern, and functional exercise capacity is also purposed. In accordance with these purposes, at least 30 patients with COPD will be included and at least 30 healthy controls will be included. Tests and questionnaires will be used in order to determine the severity of disease. Lung function test and respiratory muscle strength and endurance test will be performed. Six Minute Walk Test will be performed for functional exercise capacity. To evaluate posture, the Corbin Postural Assessment Scale will be used. Pain and pain threshold will be assessed via Visual Analog Scale and an algometer, respectively. Body Awareness Rating Questionnaire will be used for evaluating body awareness. To evaluate daily living activities, Glittre Activities of Daily Living Test will be used. The Functional Movement Screen Test will be used for functional movement analysis. According to the results to be obtained, body awareness and functional movement will be determined in patients with COPD. It will guide professional working in this field.
