Pulmonary rehabilitation is a multimodal intervention which includes an individualized physical training program, patient education, nutritional assessment and counseling, and recommendations for behavioral changes (smoking cessation, physical activity, nutrition...). This approach, validated and widely accepted by international expert societies in COPD, has been explored and evaluated in other chronic respiratory disorders. This overview analyses the impact of pulmonary rehabilitation in interstitial lung diseases, pulmonary hypertension, lung cancer (pre and post surgery), and morbid obesity. The recent medical literature encourages clinicians to consider the possibility of pulmonary rehabilitation in most chronic pulmonary disorders.
