Pulmonary function and exercise capacity after lung resection.
The influence of pulmonary resection on functional capacity can be assessed in different ways. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of lobectomy and pneumonectomy on pulmonary function tests (PFT), exercise capacity and perception of symptoms. Sixty eight patients underwent functional assessment with PFT and exercise testing before (Preop), and 3 and 6 months after lung resection. In...
متن کاملPulmonary Function after Adenotonsillectomy
Introduction Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is a common disorder among children which, without proper treatment, may lead to considerable problems. Although the consequences of this disorder have been studied in other articles, we decided to evaluate the changes in pulmonary function tests in these children after adenotonsillectomy, and the correlation between clinical and spirometric parameters. ...
متن کاملSurvival after pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with COPD: impact of functional exercise capacity and its changes
The impact of rehabilitation-induced changes in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) on the survival of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has not been fully elucidated. This study sought to determine the association of baseline 6MWD and its changes after pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) with 5-year survival in patients with COPD. Patients who were referred to a 12-week outpatient...
متن کاملEffects of lung resection on pulmonary function and exercise capacity.
The effects of lung resection on exercise capacity and perception of symptoms were studied in 47 patients aged 39-73 (mean 58.3) years. Twenty had a pneumonectomy and 27 a lobectomy, all for lung cancer. Forced expiratory volume, maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, and progressive maximal one minute incremental cycle ergometer exercise performance were measured before and after surger...
متن کاملPulmonary function in ulcerative colitis
Abstract Background: Pulmonary involvement in ulcerative colitis (UC) is thought to be rare. There is not a definite document about the question that "Is the lung a target organ in inflammatory bowel disease?" The aim of the present study is to compare lung function between cases with UC and healthy controls. This study will also be of interest about searching the outbreak of pulmonary functio...
