Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to obtain pilot data comparing aerobic exercise to strength training exercise on measures of physical function in COPD patients. Participants included seven patients who participated in the REACT II trial. REACT II was completed in April of 2006 and consisted of a 12-week aerobic training program. These same patients also partook in the current study of a 12-week high intensity progressive resistance training program that met three times a week. Each participant completed, in both the REACT II and current study, the six minute walk test, stair climb test, short physical performance battery and a self-reported physical function questionnaire. A two factor factorial Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with two within factors was used to examine differences in outcome measures. The two within factors were time (baseline and three months) and intervention (aerobic and strength). Results of this study found no significant interactions between aerobic and strength training in COPD patients for the six minute walk distance, stair climb time, short physical performance battery or selfreported physical function. There was a trend (p = 0.07) towards significance for the difference between aerobic and strength intervention six minute walk distances (488.2 " 45.4 versus 397.9 " 80.1, respectively). There was also a trend (p = 0.08) towards significance for the difference between aerobic and strength intervention SPPB scores (11.3 " 0.5 versus 10.3 " 0.9, respectively). And lastly, there was a trend (p = 0.07) viii towards significance for the difference between baseline and three month physical function questionnaire scores (1.4 " 0.1 versus 1.3 " 0.1, respectively). In conclusion, neither aerobic or strength training demonstrated significant improvements in measures of physical function in this study. However, both training groups elicited changes in the expected direction for the measures studied. Further research is needed with a larger sample size to determine the optimal training program for COPD patients.

Spruit and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a Ph.D. dissertation. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases. Clinically, it is characterized by complaints of cough, sputum production, and/or dyspnoea, and diagnosed by a significantly reduced Tiffeneau index. It was the fourth leading cause of death in the United States in 1996, exceeded only by heart attacks, cancers and stroke. Hence, COPD is a major global health problem and its burden on society is growing rapidly. For these reasons, COPD was chosen as a study population in the present project.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Respiratory Muscle Training: theory and practice is the world’s first book to provide an "everything-you-need-to-know" guide to respiratory muscle training (RMT). Authored by an internationally-acclaimed expert, it is an evidence-based resource, built upon current scientific knowledge, as well as experience at the cutting-edge of respiratory training in a wide range of settings. The aim of the book is to give readers: 1) an introduction to respiratory physiology and exercise physiology, as well as training theory; 2) an understanding of how disease affects the respiratory muscles and the mechanics of breathing; 3) an insight into the disease-specific, evidence-based benefits of RMT; 4) advice on the application of RMT as a standalone treatment, and as part of a rehabilitation programme; and finally, 5) guidance on the application of functional training techniques to RMT. The book is divided into two parts – theory and practice. Part I provides readers with access to the theoretical building blocks that support practice. It explores the evidence base for RMT as well as the different methods of training respiratory muscles and their respective efficacy. Part II guides the reader through the practical implementation of the most widely validated form of RMT, namely inspiratory muscle resistance training. Finally, over 150 "Functional" RMT exercises are described, which incorporate a stability and/or postural challenge – and address specific movements that provoke dyspnoea. Respiratory Muscle Training: theory and practice is supported by a dedicated website (www.physiobreathe.com), which provides access to the latest information on RMT, as well as video clips of all exercises described in the book. Purchasers will also receive a three-month free trial of the Physiotec software platform (via www.physiotec.ca), which allows clinicians to create bespoke training programmes (including video clips) that can be printed or emailed to patients. Introductory overviews of respiratory and exercise physiology, as well as training theory Comprehensive, up-to-date review of respiratory muscle function, breathing mechanics and RMT Analysis of the interaction between disease and respiratory mechanics, as well as their independent and combined influence upon exercise tolerance Analysis of the rationale and application of RMT to over 20 clinical conditions, e.g., COPD, heart failure, obesity, mechanical ventilation Evidence-based guidance on the implementation of inspiratory muscle resistance training Over 150 functional exercises that incorporate a breathing challenge www.physiobreathe.com - access up-to-date information, video clips of exercises and a three-month free trial of Physiotec’s RMT exercise module (via www.physiotec.ca)

Download or read book Outcomes in COPD Patients Completing Both an Endurance Training Program and a Strength Training Program written by Katherine Shields and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endurance and strength training may both lead to improvements in physical function and health-related quality of life (HRQL) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. The few studies that have compared endurance training (ET) to strength training (ST) have produced conflicting results. PURPOSE: To compare changes in physical function, HRQL, and lean mass in COPD patients completing both an ET and ST program. METHODS: Eleven mildly diseased patients completed an ET program, and subsequently, a ST program. RESULTS: Pulmonary function remained stable over the five year period. ET and ST increased six-minute walk distance. ET, but not ST, increased self-reported physical function, chair rise time, SF-36 physical component score, and Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire (CRDQ) fatigue score. ST, but not ET, increased stair climb time. ET and ST failed to change SF-36 mental component score; CRDQ dyspnea, emotion, or mastery scores; and arm or leg lean mass. CONCLUSION: Both training methods will improve objective measures of physical function. However, an ET program results in significant improvements in self-reported physical function and HRQL, whereas ST does not.
