CASE STUDY Aqua jogging-induced pulmonary oedema
نویسنده
چکیده
The present study reports the case of a 43-yr-old very sporty male, who developed shortness of breath and expectorated bloody froth during aqua jogging. Pulmonary oedema was diagnosed clinically and by computed tomography of the chest. The patient made a full recovery and his echocardiography was entirely normal. Pulmonary oedema occurring in healthy scuba-divers and swimmers has been reported previously. However, this is the first case where pulmonary oedema was observed during aqua jogging.

Aqua jogging-induced pulmonary oedema.
The case study by WENGER and RUSSI [1], of pulmonary oedema occuring during aqua jogging, is interesting. Aqua jogging certainly lowers the burden to joints and tendons as compared with land running. Conversely, running or cycling at sustained intensity may lead to higher burden to lung tissue in water than on ground. In water, the exercising mechanical strain [2] is strengthened by congestion ...
متن کاملThe effects of aquatic walking and jogging program on physical function and fall efficacy in patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of 12-week aqua walking and jogging program on muscle function, ankle range of motion (ROM), balance and fell efficacy in degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) patients. Six patients (2 males, 4 females) with DLSS participated in aquatic exercise program 3 times per week with each session of 60 min (warming-up, aqua walking, aqua joggin...
متن کاملEffect of aqua exercise on recovery of lower limb muscles after downhill running.
The aim of the present study was to examine how the recovery of physiological functioning of the leg muscles after high-intensity eccentric exercise such as downhill running could be promoted by aqua exercise for a period until the damaged muscle had recovered almost completely. Ten male long-distance runners were divided equally into an aqua exercise group and a control group. From the first d...
متن کاملPulmonary haemorrhage associated with negative-pressure pulmonary oedema: a case report.
Negative-pressure pulmonary oedema caused by upper airway obstruction after tracheal extubation is well recognised, but extensive pulmonary haemorrhage is rare. We report a case of post-extubation, laryngospasm-induced pulmonary oedema with associated pulmonary haemorrhage. The patient required mechanical ventilation with high positive end-expiratory pressure.
متن کاملPulmonary oedema with shock induced by hydrochlorothiazide: a rare side effect mimicking myocardial infarction.
The case of a 68 year old man in whom hydrochlorothiazide induced pulmonary oedema with hypovolaemic shock is presented. The condition was misdiagnosed as myocardial infarction until an early echocardiogram excluded a cardiac cause. The diagnosis was confirmed by an oral challenge.
