Study Summary

The term "Overlap Syndrome" (OS) is used to describe the presence of both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in a single patient. Due to premature aging, patients with OS are prone to developing functional decline up to 20 years earlier than the general population. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) evaluates functional status in chronic pulmonary disease globally in 5 domains. The investigators propose to study validated outcomes in 3 of these domains: 1) participation in life situations; 2) physical activity; and 3) cardiovascular health. The investigators long-term goal is to develop an exercise strategy tailored to Veterans with OS which will reduce the risk of functional decline through increased PA.

Primary Outcome

Change from baseline ESS at 12 weeks ESS is daytime sleepiness scale, lower numbers better Scale goes from 0- not sleepy at all; to 20 -very sleepy
