Quantification of physical activities in daily life patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has increasing clinical interest. However, detailed comparison healthy subjects is not available. Furthermore, it unknown whether time spent actively during related to lung function, muscle force, or maximal and functional exercise capacity. We assessed movement intensity the DynaPort activity monitor 50 (age 64 ± 7 years; FEV1 43 18% predicted) 25 elderly individuals 66 5 years). Patients...
Many patients with COVID-19 did not require hospitalisation, nor underwent testing. There is anecdotal evidence that "mild" may complain about persistent symptoms, even weeks after the infection. This suggests symptoms during infection resolve spontaneously. The objective of this study was to assess whether multiple relevant recover following onset in hospitalised and nonhospitalised COVID-19.A total 2113 members two Facebook groups for coronavirus complaints Netherlands Belgium, from a...
Rationale: Comorbidities contribute to disease severity and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary (COPD). have been studied individually were mostly based on self-reports. The coexistence of objectively identified comorbidities the role low-grade systemic inflammation pathophysiology COPD remain be elucidated.Objectives: To cluster 13 clinically important comorbidities, characterize comorbidity clusters terms clinical outcomes inflammation.Methods: A total 213 (FEV1, 51 ±...

<b>An ordinal tool is proposed to measure the full spectrum of functional outcomes following COVID-19. This "Post-COVID-19 Functional Status (PCFS) scale" can be used for tracking status over time as well research purposes.</b>https://bit.ly/3cofGaa
<b>Background:</b> Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is often associated with peripheral muscle weakness, which caused by several factors. Acute exacerbations may contribute, but their impact on force remains unclear. Correlations between and inflammatory anabolic markers have never been studied in COPD. The effect of an acute exacerbation quadriceps peak torque (QPT) was therefore hospitalised patients, the aforementioned correlations were examined stable patients....
This European Respiratory Society (ERS) statement provides a comprehensive overview on physical activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A multidisciplinary Task Force of experts representing the ERS Scientific Group 01.02 “Rehabilitation and Chronic Care” determined overall scope this through consensus. Focused literature reviews were conducted key topic areas final content Statement was agreed upon by all members. The current knowledge regarding COPD is...
Quadriceps strength relates to exercise capacity and prognosis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We wanted quantify the prevalence of quadriceps weakness COPD hypothesised that it would not be restricted patients with severe airflow obstruction or dyspnoea. Predicted was calculated using a regression equation (incorporating age, sex, height fat-free mass), based on measurements from 212 healthy subjects. The (defined as observed values 1.645 standardised residuals below...
Patients with COVID-19 or post-COVID-19 will most probably have a need for rehabilitation during and directly after the hospitalisation. Data on safety efficacy are lacking. Healthcare professionals cannot wait published randomised controlled trials before they can start these rehabilitative interventions in daily clinical practice, as number of patients increases rapidly. The Convergence Opinion Recommendations Evidence process was used to make interim recommendation hospital post-hospital...

The aim of the present study was to profile a multidimensional response pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with chronic obstructive disease (COPD). Dyspnoea, exercise performance, health status, mood status and problematic activities daily life were assessed before after 40-session programme 2068 COPD (mean forced expiratory volume 1 s 49% predicted). Patients ordered by their overall similarity concerning profile, which comprises on MRC dyspnoea grade, 6MWD, cycle endurance time, Canadian...
In Brief Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with disabling dyspnea, skeletal muscle dysfunction, and significant morbidity mortality. Current guidelines recommend rehabilitation (PR) to improve functional capacity, quality of life. Translating exercise science into safe effective training requires interpretation use multiple recommendations. The purpose this statement summarize for clinicians 3 current chronic that may be used develop prescriptions in the PR setting....
Abstract Background An increasing number of subjects are recovering from COVID-19, raising the need for tools to adequately assess course disease and its impact on functional status. We aimed construct validity Post-COVID-19 Functional Status (PCFS) Scale among adult with confirmed presumed COVID-19. Methods Adult who were members an online panel two Facebook groups COVID-19 persistent symptoms, completed survey after onset infection-related symptoms. The intensity symptoms evaluated Utrecht...
It remains unknown whether and to what extent members of online "long COVID" peer support groups remain symptomatic limited over time. Therefore, we aimed evaluate symptoms in long COVID up 6 months after the onset coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related symptoms.Demographics, symptoms, health status, work productivity, functional status health-related quality life were assessed about 3 COVID-19-related groups.Data from 239 patients with a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis (83% women; median...
