Acu-TENS and Postexercise Expiratory Flow Volume in Healthy Subjects
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation over acupoints (Acu-TENS) facilitates recovery of resting heart rate after treadmill exercise in healthy subjects. Its effect on postexercise respiratory indices has not been reported. This study investigates the effect of Acu-TENS on forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) in healthy subjects after a submaximal exe...
متن کاملAre physiological changes experienced by healthy subjects during acu-TENS associated with acupuncture point sensations?
BACKGROUND Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation over acupuncture points (acu-TENS) has been reported to improve clinical outcomes. The objectives of the present study were to investigate whether acupuncture point sensations were experienced during acu-TENS, and whether such sensations were associated with any concomitant changes in autonomic nervous system activity. METHODS This study ...
متن کاملClassification of maximal expiratory flow-volume types observed in non-smoking healthy young subjects.
Pulmonary function tests were performed on 234 healthy non-smoking young subjects (189 males and 45 females free from respiratory and allergic symptoms). Maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curves were visually classified into five MEFV types: Type A, convex or straight flow changes; types B, C, and D, concave-convex-concave flow changes; and type E, sudden flow-fall and accompanying decrease...
متن کاملPeak Expiratory Flow Rate in Healthy Children from Tehran
Background: Measuring peak expiratory flow rate has been suggested as an important tool in asthma management by all international guidelines. Objective: Studies on various populations have shown considerable variations in normal values of peak expiratory flow rate. Since reference standards for Iranian children are not available, the present study was performed to establish these standards. Me...
متن کاملEffects of dorsal and lateral decubitus on peak expiratory flow in healthy subjects.
BACKGROUND One of the measures of the pulmonary function is the peak expiratory flow (PEF) that can be defined as the major flow obtained in an expiratory pressure after a complete inspiration to the level of the total lung capacity. This measure depends on the effort and strength of expiratory muscles, the airway diameter and the lung volume. OBJECTIVE To compare the results of the peak expi...
