This systematic review aims to evaluate the effect of exercise training on sleep quality in COPD patients. PubMed and Scopus databases were searched through January 2025. Articles were selected if they described and evaluated the effects of exercise training on sleep quality in COPD patients, diagnosis of COPD done through GOLD criteria, included human trials, population above 18 years, and full text available in English. Exclusion criteria were diagnosis of COPD not done through GOLD criteria, if they included non-human trials, included people below 18 years of age, and if the articles were incomplete or unpublished. JBI Critical Appraisal Tool was used to assess the risk of bias. As a result, seven studies were included after carefully evaluating the articles. The compiled research on exercise training for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) reveals mixed outcomes regarding sleep quality and overall health. Inconclusive results were obtained regarding the effects on sleep quality in COPD patients.
