Relação entre variáveis antropométricas e de aptidão física em crianças e adolescentes estratificados por sexo

A aptidão física (ApF) pode estar associada à saúde, ao desempenho esportivo e refere-se a capacidade de apresentar um determinado desempenho motor quando submetido a situações que envolvam esforços físicos. O objetivo deste estudo foi relacionar as variáveis antropométricas e de aptidão físi...

Factores sociodemográficos, clínicos y asistenciales asociados al impacto de la Covid-19 en la capacidad funcional respiratoria post alta hospitalaria

La COVID-19 es una enfermedad infecciosa que causa importantes disfunciones respiratorias con repercusión a largo plazo, perdurando después del alta médico. En este estudio, se determinó la asociación entre los factores sociodemográficos, clínicos y asistenciales con el impacto de la COVID-19 en l...

Correlation between Surgical Risk Scales with Respiratory Muscle Strength and Functional Independence in Patients Submitted to Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Abstract Background The European Heart Surgery Risk Assessment System (EuroSCORE) and InsCor have been used to predict complications of cardiac surgery. However, their application to predict lung function and functionality is still uncertain. Objective To correlate surgical risk scales with functiona...

Correlação da ventilação voluntária máxima com a força e resistência dos músculos respiratórios em jovens

Rev. Pesqui. Fisioter; 10 (2), 2020
A ventilação voluntária máxima é um dos testes difundidos para avaliação da resistência da musculatura respiratória, mesmo sem ser validado para este fim. Na literatura ainda são encontradas controvérsias quanto a interpretação e aplicabilidade do uso da VVM na prática clínica. OBJETIVO: V...

Fisioterapia aquática em indivíduos com distrofia muscular: uma revisão sistemática do tipo escopo

RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi mapear o uso da fisioterapia aquática em indivíduos com distrofias musculares, de forma a caracterizar as intervenções no meio aquático e identificar componentes mensurados (variáveis estudadas e instrumentos utilizados nos estudos). A revisão sistemática do tip...

Effects of high- and moderate-intensity exercise on central hemodynamic and oxygen uptake recovery kinetics in CHF-COPD overlap

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (3), 2020
The oxygen uptake (V˙O2) kinetics during onset of and recovery from exercise have been shown to provide valuable parameters regarding functional capacity of both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic heart failure (CHF) patients. To investigate the influence of comorbidity of COPD...

Relationship between handgrip strength and pulmonary capacity in patients on hemodialysis

Abstract Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as loss of kidney function, but its progression leads to systemic changes that compromise the quality of life of patients on dialysis. As such, the decline in lung capacity in this population may be one of the factors related to reduced per...

Clinical and blood gas analysis of calves conceived by artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization and animal cloning

Pesqui. vet. bras; 39 (7), 2019
In order for successful extra-uterine adaptation to occur, it is necessary for the neonate to be able to establish its respiratory functions effectively, guaranteeing efficient oxygenation and good vitality. Respiratory disorders are the major cause of death during the neonatal period in cattle, and this...

Función pulmonar en pacientes con distrofia muscular de Duchenne

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive respiratory impairment, so early assessment of lung function is important to prevent complications, establish the advance of the disease and decide which therapeutic interventions should be made. In this review, the...

Reduced functional capacity in patients with Chagas disease: a systematic review with meta-analysis

Abstract Reduced peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) is a common clinical finding in progressive Chagas disease. However, the disease stage in which functional impairment is detectable remains uncertain. The present study compared functional capacity between healthy controls and patients with different clinical...
