Phenotyping Resting and Exertional Right Ventricular Dysfunction Among Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Pulmonary Artery Enlargement

Study participants will undergo testing to identify patterns of right ventricular dysfunction. If a study participant decides to participate in exercise training, the participant will complete an optional Part 2 of the study. Optional Part 2 includes an exercise training intervention followed by repeat testing to determine impact of exercise training on right ventricular dysfunction.
