Filter by: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.
This is a two parts study, a single ascending dose followed by 14-days repeat dosing. The single ascending dose part will assess two dose levels of GSK3923868 or placebo across two treatment periods 1 and 2 in a single cohort of participants with a washout period of a minimum of 5 days after each treatment periods. The repeat dose part will assess repeated one dose level of GSK3923868 or placebo in treatment period 3 with up to 14 days of follow up in the same cohort of participants. The duration of study participation for treatment period 1, 2 and 3 will be 6, 6 and up to 29 days (including follow up), respectively.
Aims and objectives: To determine the effect of foot bath on sleep quality and fatigue level in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Background: İnsomnia and fatigue are one of the most common symptoms in people with COPD and adversely affects their activities of daily living. Design: This study was conducted as a nonrandomized controlled trial. Methods:The study sample comprised 70 patients who met the inclusion criteria.Data were collected with Patient Information Form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Piper Fatigue Scale. Intervention group; The 30-day foot bath was administered for 10 minutes before bedtime, while no control was performed in the control group. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI) and the Piper Fatigue Scale were administered in both groups at the beginning of the service (first follow-up) and four weeks later (second follow-up) at the outpatient clinic. Conclusions: The foot bath by individuals with COPD was determined to significantly improve the participants'levels sleep quality and fatigue.
Conduct an in-depth evaluation of autonomic function using a validated tests, assess genetic aspects of autonomic failure, and determine the correlation between of autonomic function failure and other clinical variables in patients with COPD.
The purpose of this multicenter, prospective cohort study is to investigate the correlation of real-world sensor-derived biometric data obtained via a wearable device with clinical parameters and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) for monitoring disease activity and predicting exacerbations for participants with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The cohort of participants with COPD will be followed for 3 months. A calibration cohort with non-COPD participants will be included and followed for 2 weeks.
It will be randomized controlled trial. The research will be conducted at Bahawal Victoria hospital Bahawalpur and civil hospital Bahawalpur. We take 60 patients (Epitool), Patients will be allocated randomly in two groups. Group A will get conventional medical treatment and Group B will get both conventional medical treatment and pranayama breathing exercise. Both gender of age group 30 to 55, Patient with diagnosed Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ,Moderate to severe Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with productive cough, Shortness of breathe and no surgical procedure performed will be included in this study. And patients of lung surgery, lung cancer, above 70 years age, with open wound, cardiovascular issues, and neurological issues will be excluded. Yoga exercise pranayama, 6 min walk test, IPAQ- quality of life and VSAQ-exercise capacity will be used as tools. Data will be analyzed on SPSS 21.
