The primary objective of the study is to assess the improvement of daily activity in subjects with Stage IV Pulmonary Sarcoidosis one year after the conduct of a pulmonary rehabilitation program.
The secondary objectives are the following:
- assess the improvement of daily activity at several times : 2, 6 and 12 months after the beginning of a pulmonary rehabilitation program
- assess the improvement of exercise capacity by tests used in medical practice
- assess the correlation between daily activity and exercise capacity
- assess the improvement of dyspnea
- assess the improvement of quality of life and psychological state

- Daily activity assessed by time (in minutes) spent in moderate activity (superior to 2,5 MET) [ Time Frame: 12 months ]In everyday life, it corresponds to a walking in 5 km/h or in domestic chores. This measure will be realized by using Armband's accelerometer, in ambulatory. The measure will be realized over a period of 4 full days including the weekend.
- Daily activity assessed by time spent in moderate activity (superior to 2,5 MET) [ Time Frame: 2 and 6 months ]
