Unilateral Arm Crank Exercise Test for Assessing Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Individuals with Hemiparetic Stroke
Cardiorespiratory fitness assessment with leg cycle exercise testing may be influenced by motor impairments in the paretic lower extremity. Hence, this study examined the usefulness of a unilateral arm crank exercise test to assess cardiorespiratory fitness in individuals with stroke, including sixteen individuals with hemiparetic stroke (mean ± SD age, 56.4 ± 7.5 years) and 12 age- and sex-mat...
متن کاملA 45-Second Self-Test for Cardiorespiratory Fitness: Heart Rate-Based Estimation in Healthy Individuals
Cardio-respiratory fitness (CRF) is a widespread essential indicator in Sports Science as well as in Sports Medicine. This study aimed to develop and validate a prediction model for CRF based on a 45 second self-test, which can be conducted anywhere. Criterion validity, test re-test study was set up to accomplish our objectives. Data from 81 healthy volunteers (age: 29 ± 8 years, BMI: 24.0 ± 2....
متن کاملCardiorespiratory fitness, exercise, and blood pressure.
F indings from well-designed large epidemiological studies and diverse populations support a robust, inverse, and independent association between physical activity, cardiore-spiratory fitness, and cardiovascular and overall mortality risk. The association is independent of age, race, sex, documented cardiovascular disease, or comorbidities, including hyperten-sion. In prehypertension and hypert...
متن کاملThe Motor Activity Log-28: assessing daily use of the hemiparetic arm after stroke.
BACKGROUND Data from monkeys with deafferented forelimbs and humans after stroke indicate that tests of the motor capacity of impaired extremities can overestimate their spontaneous use. Before the Motor Activity Log (MAL) was developed, no instruments assessed spontaneous use of a hemiparetic arm outside the treatment setting. OBJECTIVE To study the MAL's reliability and validity for assessi...
متن کاملCardiorespiratory fitness and the risk for stroke in men.
BACKGROUND Low cardiorespiratory fitness is considered to be a major public health problem. We examined the relationship of cardiorespiratory fitness, as indicated by maximum oxygen consumption VO(2)max with subsequent incidence of stroke. We also compared VO(2)max with conventional risk factors as a predictor for future strokes. METHODS Population-based cohort study with an average follow-up...
