Objectives To evaluate the short-term and long-term benefits of adding a weekly educational session to traditional 8-week home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programme in people with chronic obstructive disease (COPD). Primary hypothesis was that 8 supervised sessions will be equivalent 16 at both short- after PR. Design Retrospective cohort study conducted on prospectively collected real-life data, from January 2010 December 2021. Setting FormAction Santé, Pérenchies France....

This study aimed to assess the cardiorespiratory response during a 1-min sit-to-stand test (1STS) in comparison with cycling cardiopulmonary exercise (CPET) people chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and healthy subjects evaluate whether 1STS may induce leg fatigue these individuals.Fourteen severe COPD 12 performed CPET which response, perception of dyspnea, were assessed. Quadriceps strength was assessed before after 1STS, contractile defined as postexercise fall quadriceps twitch...

Background: The prevalence of physical frailty and its clinical characteristics in advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is unknown, as well the usefulness functional capacity tests to screen for frailty. aim study was evaluate proportion portrait COPD patients with respiratory failure exhibiting at time referral home-based rehabilitation. We also short performance battery (SPPB) timed-up go (TUG) potential screening tools Finally, we evaluated specific contribution gait...

The aims were to determine reliability and feasibility of measurements assess quadriceps endurance in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Sixty participants (forced expiratory volume one second (mean ± standard deviation) 55 18% predicted, age 67 8 years) tested an inter-day, test-retest design. Isokinetic, isometric, isotonic protocols performed using a computerized dynamometer. Test-retest relative absolute was determined via intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC),...

Various functional muscle properties affect different aspects of exercise capacity in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The purpose this study was to investigate the contribution quadriceps strength, endurance, and power 6-Minute Walking Distance (6MWD) 1-minute sit-to-stand test (1STS) performance COPD.The a prospective, multicenter, cross-sectional study. Anthropometrics, Medical Research Council dyspnea scale, lung function, 6MWD, 1STS number repetitions were...

Our objective was to evaluate the short-, medium- and long-term benefits of home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) on physical affective components dyspnoea in people with fibrotic idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (f-IIPs). Anxiety depressive symptoms, fatigue, health-related quality life exercise tolerance were also assessed.

Background Dyspnoea is a multidimensional experience of breathing discomfort, but its affective dimension unfrequently assessed in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We evaluated the effectiveness home-based rehabilitation (PR) programme on physical and components dyspnoea by Dyspnoea-12 (D-12) questionnaire. also determined baseline characteristics that contributed to change D-12 scores. Methods In this retrospective study, 225 COPD (age, 65±11 years; forced...

Daily life disability and vulnerability is often reported in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) respiratory failure. Although rehabilitation feasible this population, its benefits on functional status physical frailty uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the short- medium-term effectiveness of a home-based program COPD We also impact efficacy intervention. Forty-seven participants underwent an 8-week program. Functional capacity, (Fried criteria), exercise...

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programme on anxiety and depressive symptoms, general fatigue burden in informal caregivers patients with COPD. We also evaluated baseline characteristics both that contributed change caregiver's outcomes after PR. Methods In retrospective study, COPD were referred an 8-week PR consisting weekly supervised 90-min session. Informal invited participate according patient's preference its...

Pulmonary rehabilitation, whether performed at home or in a specialised centre, is effective the management of COPD. As gender-related differences COPD were previously reported, we aimed to evaluate impact gender on pulmonary rehabilitation outcomes short, medium and long term. In this retrospective observational study 170 women 310 men with COPD, compared an 8-week home-based programme including individualised plan retraining exercises, physical activities, therapeutic education,...

Pulmonary rehabilitation is widely recommended to improve functional status and as secondary tertiary prevention in individuals with chronic pulmonary diseases. Unfortunately, access timely appropriate remains limited. To help close this inaccessibility gap, telerehabilitation has been proposed. However, exercise testing necessary for effective safe prescription. Current gold-standard tests, such maximal cardiopulmonary (CPET) the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), are poorly adapted home-based or...

Background: Long-term effectiveness of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is still uncertain in older people with severe chronic obstructive disease (COPD). The objective was to compare the effects home-based PR COPD above and below age 70 years. Methods: In this retrospective study, 480 were recruited divided into those ≤ (n=341) > years (n=139). All participants underwent an 8 weeks PR, consisting a weekly supervised 90-minute home session. Six-minute stepper test (6MST), timed-up go (TUG),...

Abstract We compared quadriceps oxygenation and surface electromyography (sEMG) responses during the 1-min sit-to-stand (1STS) in 14 people with severe COPD 12 controls, whom cardiorespiratory response, near-infrared spectroscopy signals (oxy [Hb-Mb], deoxy total SmO 2 ) sEMG of were recorded. Time duration each cycle work performed 1STS measured. The parameters normalized by reporting their values according to 1STS. rate maneuvers decelerated leading smaller controls. pattern response was...

Abstract Knowledge about modifiable determinants of daily physical activity (PA) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is crucial to design effective PA interventions. The present study aimed determine the contribution quadriceps strength, power and endurance COPD. Additionally, for endurance, we also what extent association varies according mode movement (isotonic, isometric, or isokinetic). Using a multicentre cross-sectional trial determined function (steps,...

The lack of reference values lower-limb muscle function hinders the clinical recommendations its measurement in patients with COPD. Therefore, this study aimed to develop equations predict for quadriceps strength, endurance and power evaluate their construct validity COPD.Quadriceps were assessed 158 healthy individuals 87 In addition, COPD performed a 6-min walk test (6MWT) 1-min sit-to-stand (1STS). Multiple linear regressions equations. proportion reduced was determined, correlations...

Severe asthma is the main cause of burden, morbidity and asthma-related healthcare costs. Although biologics transformed prognosis, they are mainly effective in type-2 phenotypes, where exhibit a wide range responses [1], leaving many patients uncontrolled. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) transdisciplinary programme improving control non-severe [2, 3]. In this exploratory study, we aimed to evaluate effect PR on severe outcomes. We conducted single-centre retrospective cohort study. Adults...
