Filter by:Our study aiming for determining the combined effect of selective manual therapy techniques in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients
The purpose the study is to successfully characterize the recovery phase of acute exacerbations of COPD in the outpatient setting using remotely captured physiologic data from wearable devices, to compare this with patient self-reported symptom data, to determine which physiologic variable(s) best correspond with AECOPD recovery, and to further document the feasibility, data quantity, data quality, and COPD outpatient usability experience with wearable devices.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate exercise strategies that motivate and relive stress in adults with cardiopulomnary conditions. The goals of this study are as follows: - To explore the feasibility (how easily it can be done) of using self-selected music during exercise training for adults with cardiopulmonary conditions. - To assess patient satisfaction of self-selected music with exercise for adults with cardiopulmonary conditions. - To explore the immediate effects of self-selected music on mood and symptoms (shortness of breath and fatigue) compared with listening to a podcast during their exercise training session Participants will: - Select 5-7 songs and 1 podcast to listen to during their treatment session - Walk on the treadmill while either listening to a podcast or music - Fill out surveys about their mood, symptoms (shortness of breath and fatigue), music/podcast, and exercise
This will be a randomized controlled trial Patients will be divided into two groups randomly. Both groups will receive postural drainage as baseline treatment thrice a week for two weeks. The intervention group will undergo additional Aerobic Training thrice a week for two weeks as well along with postural drainage. Aerobic training will include a 5-step stair-climbing and a 10-step walk during each session. Data will be collected before and at the end of two weeks. Respiratory Rate, Pulse Oximeter, 10-meter Endurance walk test, and Pediatric Cough Questionnaire will be used to collect data pre and post-treatment. Data will be analyzed by use of SPSS Version 2010. Data will be presented in the form of mean and standard deviation.
The primary aim of our study is to examine the relationship between balance and respiratory function, respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, functional capacity, and cognitive function in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The secondary aim of our study is to compare respiratory function, respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, functional capacity, balance, and cognitive functions of COPD patients and healthy individuals. This study will examine and record the participant's sociodemographic information and medical records. Balance, respiratory function, respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, functional capacity, and cognitive function will be assessed. Since the patients are included in this study, no intervention will be made, no additional tests will be performed, or no changes will be made in the routine treatments of the patients during the study.
To investigate the effects of resistant proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises on physical fitness, respiratory muscle strength, walking distance and quality of life in chronic obstructive pulmonary patients.
Abstract Background: Several medical scores have been developed to support clinical support and predict complications in hospitalized patients. However, there is no scale for physical therapy (PT) support. Objetivo: To develop a scale to determine the level of complexity and PT support in hospitalized patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in a tertiary hospital and developed in three distinctive phases: scale (PHYSIOSCORE) development, validation, and testing. The development phase was performed with ten senior PTs using the Delphi methodology. The validation and testing phases were performed by assessing 220 patients (n=110 in each phase). The reproducibility was evaluated by re-assessing 110 patients every five days until hospital discharge.
Research on the impact of lung diseases on neuropsychological functioning has revealed impaired cognitive processing in patients with a variety of pulmonary disorders. While the mechanisms responsible for the association of pulmonary diseases and neurocognitive functioning remain unclear, some researchers have attributed it to reduced oxygenation of the brain. Early detection and accurate management of comorbidity have benefits in reducing ILD morbidity and mortality.
This study is designed to determine the effect of Nebulized Magnesium Sulphate as an add-on therapy with conventional treatment on In-hospital outcome in patients having acute exacerbation of COPD.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the short-term effects of two different breathing techniques (the active cycle breathing technique (ACBT) and the pursed lip breathing technique (PLB)) with Thera PEP® on the clearance of secretions and the oxygen saturation of individuals who have recently experienced an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in individuals who have recently experienced an acute exacerbation of COPD (COPD). Thirty patients will each have an acute COPD exacerbation seen on them, and then they will be randomly allocated to one of two groups (1. ACBT and PLB; 2. Thera PEP). Participants in a study employing a design known as a within-subject randomized crossover will be given the instruction to carry out each procedure on consecutive days as part of the study. In this study, the dependent variables will include blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation (SpO2), respiratory rate, peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), visual analog scale (VAS), sputum volume, and the breathlessness, cough, and sputum scale. In addition, the independent variables will include sputum volume (BCSC). The patient's desired course of treatment will also be taken into account. These dependent variables will be examined at three distinct moments in time: at the beginning of the study (the baseline), immediately after treatment, and thirty minutes after treatment has been completed.
