Filter by:Inspiratory muscle training(IMT) was one of the widely used pulmonary rehabilitation method in COPD patients.However, when the respiratory muscles are fatigue without sufficient rest, IMT may increase muscle fatigue and aggravate muscle damage. Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) is another important strategy of pulmonary rehabilitation which could overcome airway resistance and reduce respiratory work, improve respiratory muscle fatigue. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the effective of the "IMT - NPPV sequential" rehabilitation method, that is, first inspiratory muscle training, followed by respiratory muscle resting (non-invasive positive pressure ventilation).
The proposed study seeks to assess the performance of continuous biosensor data and machine learning analytics in assessment of health patient status in a pulmonary rehabilitation program. It is hypothesized that using continuous physiologic biosensor data and machine learning analytics to detect changes in physiology may play a role in managing patients in the pulmonary rehabilitation setting.
This study aimed to translate and adapt to portuguese an original british instrument useful to measure respiratory patients' self-efficacy specific to the context of Pulmonary Rehabilitation.
Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is an important risk factor for chronic respiratory disease due to residual lung damage. A recent review of the literature on TB sequelae and rehabilitation has provided clear evidence that TB is definitively responsible for lung function impairment. Functional evaluation of TB patients after completion of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment or spontaneous healing should be considered as part of clinical care. Unfortunately, few studies are available in the literature investigating the physiopathology of lung damage, its impact on quality of life, the potential need for pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), and the effects of a PR program.Objectives of this prospective multicentre international study are: Primary Objective-to assess the exercise capacity 6-min walking test in patients with post-TB lung impairment after completion of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment or after spontaneous healing. Secondary Objectives-to assess the effects of the PR program on dyspnoea symptoms and muscle fatigue, quality of life.
Pulmonary rehabilitation program with aerobic and strengthening trainings for 3 months will be applied to the candidates for lung transplantation. The program will be designed to be 2 days supervised weekly and 3 day home program. After completion of the program, patients will be divided into two groups according to their cognitive status (Group 1: those with poor cognition; Group 2: those with good cognition). The PR gains of the groups will be compared.
Severe exercise intolerance and shortness of breath are present in lung transplant candidates. Clinical features that reveal these symptoms in terminal period lung patients vary and are unclear. The effect of peripheral muscle strength on exercise capacity and dyspnea will be examined in our study.
The investigators aimed to compare the home-based Pulmonary Rehabilitation with the hospital-based pulmonary rehabilitation in terms of pulmonary rehabilitation efficiency in patient with bronchiectasis.
Lung transplantation candidates will be performed a 3-month hospital-based preoperative exercise training. A 6-minute walk test, a 10-meter walking speed test and a 5-times sit to stand test will be performed to determine the exercise capacity of the patient. The tests will be carried out at the beginning and end of rehabilitation. At each testing session, the tests will be performed sequentially by the same physiotherapist, giving 20 minute rest periods within the same day. It will be analyzed how the test data correlate with each other and how the delta values calculated for each test reflect the rehabilitation outcomes calculated after the exercise program.
Pulmonary rehabilitation program with aerobic and strengthening for 3 months will be applied to the candidates for lung transplantation. The program will be designed to be 2 days supervised weekly and 3 day home program. Cognitive functions and exercise capacities of the patients before and after the program will be evaluated.
Pulmonary rehabilitation effectively improves outcomes in patients with chronic respiratory disease, however there is a lack of pulmonary rehabilitation centers. Telehealth technology is one solution to deliver supervised home-based rehabilitation (tele-rehabilitation). However, the feasibility and the acceptability of using telehealth technology to deliver tele-rehabilitation has not been assessed in a large scale multicenter study. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the feasibility and the acceptability of telemonitoring system during pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic respiratory disease.
