Oxygen and Ventilatory Output during Several Activities of Daily Living Performed by COPD Patients Stratified According to Disease Severity
OBJECTIVES To measure the oxygen and ventilatory output across all COPD stages performing 18 common ADL and identify the activities that present the highest metabolic and ventilatory output as well as to compare the energy expenditure within each disease severity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Metabolic (VO2 and VCO2), ventilatory (f and VE), cardiovascular (HR) and dyspnea (Borg score) variables wer...
متن کاملMetabolic and ventilatory parameters of four activities of daily living accomplished with arms in COPD patients.
STUDY OBJECTIVE The upper limbs are involved in the activities of daily living (ADLs). Normal subjects usually perform such activities without noticing the energy cost, but patients with COPD report tiredness when performing them. This study was designed to assess the metabolic and ventilatory demands in patients with COPD during the performance of four ADLs involving the upper limbs. DESIGN ...
متن کاملHealth-promoting activities performed by nurses for patients with COPD.
INTRODUCTION Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the fourth most common cause of death in the world. The significance of health promotion is usually emphasised among the activities which nurses should undertake in relation to patients suffering from COPD. The aim of the study was to analyse the frequency and types of health promotion activities undertaken by nurses in relation to pa...
متن کاملOxygen saturation during daily activities in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) frequently develop nocturnal oxygen desturation because of alveolar hypoventilation, worsening of ventilation-perfusion mismatch, and sometimes obstructive sleep apnoeas. In contrast, little is known about their oxygen status during the various activities of daily life. The aim of this study was to compare the oxygen saturation profile ...
متن کاملEffects of Pursed Lip Breathing on Ventilation and Activities of Daily Living in Patients with COPD
Background Breathing rehabilitation techniques are designed to reduce symptoms, decrease disability, increase participation in physical and social activities, and improve the overall quality of life for individuals with chronic respiratory diseases. However, the role of these techniques remains unclear. This study examined the effects of pursed-lip breathing (PLB) on the respiratory function, a...
