Physical activity and hospitalization for exacerbation of COPD.
BACKGROUND Acute exacerbations (AEs) have a negative impact on various aspects of the progression of COPD, but objective and detailed data on the impact of hospitalizations for an AE on physical activity are not available. Objective and measurements: We aimed to investigate physical activity using an activity monitor (DynaPort; McRoberts; the Hague, the Netherlands), pulmonary function, muscle ...
متن کاملRisk factors of hospitalization and readmission of patients with COPD exacerbation – systematic review
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) exacerbations are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Data regarding factors which causes or prevents exacerbations is very limited. The aim of this systematic review is to summarize the results from available studies to identify potential risk factors for hospital admission and/or re-admission among patients experiencing COPD exace...
متن کاملHospitalization due to exacerbation of COPD: "Real-life" outcomes.
Introduction: Hospitalization due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation (eCOPD) may indicate worse prognosis. It is important to know the profile of hospitalized patients and their outcome of hospitalization to customize and optimize treatment. Method: Evaluation of patients hospitalized for eCOPD, with ≥ 10 pack/years and ≥ 1 previous spirometry with airway obstruction over t...
متن کاملAssessment of Aerobic Exercise Adverse Effects during COPD Exacerbation Hospitalization
Introduction. Aerobic exercise performed after hospital discharge for exacerbated COPD patients is already recommended to improve respiratory and skeletal muscle strength, increase tolerance to activity, and reduce the sensation of dyspnea. Previous studies have shown that anaerobic activity can clinically benefit patients hospitalized with exacerbated COPD. However, there is little information...
متن کاملRespiratory muscle strength during and after hospitalization for COPD exacerbation.
BACKGROUND A more profound investigation of respiratory muscle strength during COPD exacerbation was needed, so we investigated respiratory muscle strength and related factors in patients with COPD during and after hospitalization for COPD exacerbation. METHODS In 19 subjects hospitalized for COPD exacerbation (12 males, mean age 67 ± 11 y, median percent-of-predicted FEV(1) 26% [IQR 19-32%])...
