Cardiopulmonary exercise testing following hay exposure challenge in farmer's lung.
In patients experiencing an acute episode of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), the alveoli and interstitium show a marked inflammation. The effects of this infiltration with effector cells on gas exchange and the cardiopulmonary system are not well characterized, and there are no data regarding cardiopulmonary exercise testing during hypersensitivity pneumonitis. The aim of this study was to g...
متن کاملExercise in Cardiovascular Disease Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in the Clinical Evaluation of Patients With Heart and Lung Disease
Exercise tests are commonly used in clinical practice for both functional and diagnostic assessments. Many exercise tests are designed to produce a single measurement relevant to a specific clinical setting such as a timed walking distance as a measure of functional capacity in rehabilitation candidates or the presence of ECG changes consistent with myocardial ischemia in patients with chest pa...
متن کاملCardiopulmonary exercise testing in differential diagnosis of dyspnea.
Dyspnea is a common exercise-induced symptom whose treatment is often improperly because the pathophysiology causing the exercise intolerance is not well understood. The most important requirement for exercise performance is transport of oxygen to support the bioenergetic processes in the muscle cells (including, of course, the heart) and elimination of the carbon dioxide formed as a product of...
متن کاملExertional dyspnoea in interstitial lung diseases: the clinical utility of cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) represent a heterogeneous group of pathologies characterised by alveolar and interstitial damage, pulmonary inflammation (usually associated with fibrosis), decreased lung function and impaired gas exchange, which can be attributed to either a known or an unknown aetiology. Dyspnoea is one of the most common and disabling symptoms in patients with ILD, signific...
متن کاملEndothelial dysfunction and lung capillary injury in cardiovascular diseases.
Cardiac dysfunction of both systolic and diastolic origins leads to increased left atrial pressure, lung capillary injury and increased resistance to gas transfer. Acutely, pressure-induced trauma disrupts the endothelial and alveolar anatomical configuration and definitively causes an impairment of cellular pathways involved in fluid-flux regulation and gas exchange efficiency, a process well ...
