Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Pulmonary rehabilitation programs vary in their design and implementation but generally share common goals. Examples of these common goals appear in Box 55-1.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Studies show that the relative success of reconditioning plays less of a role in determining whether patients complete a program than does meeting their psychosocial support needs.
