However, little is known about the structure of maintenance programmes after PR. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of experimental and quasi-experimental studies evaluating individuals with COPD admitted to a maintenance PR programme, delivered after an initial PR programme. We reported functional capacity evaluation (6-minute-walking-test), HRQoL, dyspnoea and symptom control. Searches were performed on the 11<jats:sup>th<\/jats:sup> April 2021 using MEDLINE, Embase, EBSCO, CINAHL, Web of Science and Cochrane Library. We extracted summary-level data from trial publications and used a random-effects model, predicting that severe heterogeneity was detected. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021247724). Fifteen studies were included in the meta-analysis, with 1151 participants. Maintenance programmes were associated with a pooled mean increase of 27.08 meters in 6mWT (CI: 10.39 to 43.77; I<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2009=\u200993%; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001), being better in supervised, long (&gt;12 month) home-based programmes; and having a potential MD of -4.20 pts in SGRQ (CI: -4.49 to -3.91; I<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2009=\u20090%; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.74). Regarding dyspnoea and exacerbations, we found a nonsignificant trend for improvement after maintenance PR programmes. Severe COPD patients showed smaller improvements in programmes up to a year. Overall, the strength of the underlying evidence was moderate. Despite limitations of risk of bias and heterogeneity, our results support that home-based, supervised, long-term maintenance PR programmes may significantly improve functional capacity in COPD patients and HRQoL.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41533-022-00302-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,3]],"date-time":"2022-10-03T18:44:08Z","timestamp":1664822648000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["A meta-analysis on the structure of pulmonary rehabilitation maintenance programmes on COPD patients\u2019 functional capacity"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0055-8261","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Liliana","family":"Silva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4201-9565","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tiago","family":"Maricoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Patr\u00edcio","family":"Costa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Joana","family":"Berger-Estilita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6631-776X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jos\u00e9 Miguel","family":"Padilha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"302_CR1","unstructured":"GOLD.
