Cardiovascular rehabilitation soon after stroke using feedback-controlled robotics-assisted treadmill exercise: study protocol of a randomised controlled pilot trial
BACKGROUND After experiencing a stroke, most individuals also suffer from cardiac disease, are immobile and thus have low endurance for exercise. Aerobic capacity is seriously reduced in these individuals and does not reach reasonable levels after conventional rehabilitation programmes. Cardiovascular exercise is beneficial for improvement of aerobic capacity in mild to moderate stroke. However...

متن کاملThe obesity hypoventilation syndrome.
We only need to look around us to see that we are in an epidemic of obesity and obesity-related medical problems. The obesity hypoventilation syndrome is a disorder in which an obese person with normal lungs chronically hypoventilates. Obesity impairs ventilatory mechanics, increases the work of breathing and carbon dioxide production, results in respiratory muscle dysfunction, and reduces vent...
متن کاملObesity hypoventilation syndrome.
The term obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) refers to the combination of obesity and chronic hypercapnia that cannot be directly attributed to underlying cardiorespiratory disease. Despite a plethora of potential pathophysiological mechanisms for gas exchange and respiratory control abnormalities that have been described in the obese, the etiology of hypercapnia in OHS has been only partial...
متن کاملDefining obesity hypoventilation syndrome.
The definition of obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) proposed by Hart et al raises two questions that we have tried to answer briefly in this letter. First, previous definitions of OHS included obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA); Hart et al have excluded it. Why? OSA is present in most patients with OHS and is partly responsible for the hypercapnia. We believe that it is useful to include it in...
