Filter by:One of the most frequent surgical procedures in the pediatric population is circumcision, following which postoperative pain could be stressful. Usually, the most common approach is combining regional anesthesia techniques such as landmark dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB) with general anesthesia (GA). The hypothesis of this study investigates ultrasound-guided DPNB plus sedation in spontaneous breathing.
Objective: To determine the effect of breathing exercises on certain physiological parameters, sleep quality and vitality in the elderly. Method: In this randomized controlled, experimental study, pre and post tests were applied to 26 elderly participants in the intervention group and to 25 elderly patients in the control group. The intervention group underwent breathing exercises for 30 minutes at the same time of the day, three days a week for three months (pursed-lip breathing exercise, deep breathing exercise, coughing exercise), while no such exercise was carried out by the control group. Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index, the Subjective Vitality Scale, spirometer, sphygmomanometer and pulse oximetry device measurements were used for the collection of data. The data was evaluated with an independent sample t-test, a paired-sample t-test and a two-way repeated measures ANOVA.
Bioequivalence study between two inhaler products of fixed dose combination of fluticasone propionate and salmeterol xinafoate inhalation powder
Maximal oxygen consumption, VO2max, is the gold standard to evaluate human aerobic fitness, which stands for the maximal capacity of cardiorespiratory system and musculoskeletal system to transport and utilize oxygen. Previous study showed that there is significant correlation between maximal oxygen consumption from cardiopulmonary exercise test and strength and endurance of lower extremities. In people with sedentary lifestyle, they often limited by the lower limb muscle performance during cardiopulmonary exercise test. Their breathing patterns are more irregular than athletes during cardiopulmonary exercise test. However, there is no study comparing the activation pattern of respiratory muscles between these two groups. Whether the breathing pattern in people with lower exercise capacity is less efficient under exertional activities still unknown. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between maximal oxygen consumption and inspiratory muscle activation pattern in healthy adults.

This study was designed as a prospective and experimental study. Geriatric individuals (age ≥ 65 years) with COPD and non-COPD were included in the study. Training program was identical for both groups and consisted of 4 weeks of foundation IMT followed by 4 weeks of functional IMT. Respiratory muscle strength, symptoms, exercise capacity, balance, postural control, physical activity and quality of life were evaluated.
Introduction: Studies have shown the influence of exercise on sleep architecture and efficiency, although its protocols, procedures, effects and mechanisms of action have not been clearly explained and documented in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), which is thought to be the main sleep disorder due to its high prevalence and clinical, social and cognitive consequences. Objective: To evaluate the effect of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in OSAHS, by analyzing their influence on the quality of sleep, inspiratory muscle strength and polysomnography parameters. Patients and Methods: Controlled and randomized clinical trial involving 75 patients with OSAHS diagnosed by polysomnography. Measurements of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) will be performed. Pittsburgh scale Epworth, Sleepiness Scale, Short Form-36, and Berlin / Stanford questionnaires will be used for assessment of sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, health related quality of life quality of health, and the evaluation of snoring. Patients of the intervention group will undergo IMT with an initial load of 40% of MIP. The intervention will be performed daily for 12 weeks employing the exercise inspiratory device (POWERbreathe, HaB Ltd, UK). The main end point will be the effect of the training program on the index of apnea/hypopnea (IAH) assessed by polysomnography. Secondary end points will include effects of the training program on: the quality of sleep, inspiratory muscle strength, the health related QOL. Expected Results: if the hypothesis is confirmed, there will be improvements on the apnea / hypopnea index, on the quality of sleep and on the health related QOL.
Different diseases worldwide have repercussions at the level of multiple systems; but without a doubt a higher prevalence in the cardiopulmonary system. When a patient is hospitalized, he enters a continuous and often prolonged rest stay. Wherein, this physical inactivity plus its base pathology negatively impact its lung capacity. And low lung capacity has been shown to increase the risk of mortality, hospital stay, and complications. That said, the use of the device known as the "incentive inspirometer" is important, which to some extent there is no standardization of its use or applicability in a structured and planned manner. For this reason, the Japer method emerges as an idea; which, pretending through an exercise prescription through the incentive inspirometer according to 50% to 80% of the maximum inspiring capacity of the patient, improves their inspiring capacity. Having said this, the general objective was to analyze the effects of the JaPer method to improve lung capacity versus the traditional use of an inspirometer in hospitalized patients.
The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of pranayama and deep breathing exercise in reducing fatigue and insomnia in patients receiving radiotherapy due to breast cancer. The randomized controlled interventional study was carried out with 60 patients divided into the pranayama (20), deep breathing exercise (20) and control group (20). Data were collected with the Piper Fatigue Scale (PFS), the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
The investigators will record 120 patients who received general anesthesia, their EEG data recorded from Bispectral Index (BIS) machine for emperical mode decomposition (EMD) analysis, the investigators decomposed EEG signal to different oscillations and tried to observe the differences between hypnotic medications through EEG analysis.
