Analysis of the impact of different exercise methods on the physical health of obese adolescents

ABSTRACT Introduction: The unregulated development in the current life pattern has strengthened obesity among adolescents, and this problem is becoming more serious. Objective: Compare the impact of two exercise methods on the physical health of obese adolescents. Methods: 24 obese adolescents (12 fem...

Una propuesta para protocolizar el incentivo inspiratorio

Rev. colomb. neumol; 34 (2), 2022
Los autores nos presentan en este artículo un ensayo clínico aleatorizado, cuyo objetivo es analizar los efectos del método JaPer sobre la capacidad inspiratoria de los pacientes hospitalizados. La primera inquietud a resolver es ¿En qué consiste el método JaPer y cuál es su finalidad? Pues bien,...

Método JaPer. Una nueva estrategia para mejorar la capacidad inspiratoria. Ensayo Clínico Aleatorizado

Rev. colomb. neumol; 34 (2), 2022
Introducción: las enfermedades pulmonares pueden generar hospitalizaciones, estancias prolongadas, complicaciones e inclusive la muerte. Estas enfermedades repercuten negativamente en la capacidad inspiratoria y en la calidad de vida. Por lo tanto, el presente artículo pretende analizar los efectos del...

Effects of home-based inspiratory muscle training on sickle cell disease (SCD) patients

ABSTRACT Introduction: Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) has been shown to be an efficient method of improving exercise tolerance and inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength in several diseases. The effects of IMT on patients with sickle cell anemia (SCD) are relatively unknown. Our study aimed to ev...

Maximum inspiratory and expiratory pressures in the pre and postoperative periods of patients with incisional abdominal hernia corrected by Lázaro da Silva technique

Rev. Col. Bras. Cir; 47 (), 2020
ABSTRACT Objective: To verify the effect of longitudinal abdominal incisional herniorrhaphy on respiratory muscle pressure. Method: The technique of incisional herniorrhaphy used was proposed by Lázaro da Silva. To measure the pressure, we used a water manometer in 20 patients, median age 48.5 years ...

Comparison of the effects of voluntary and involuntary breath stacking techniques on respiratory mechanics and lung function patterns in tracheostomized patients: a randomized crossover clinical trial

J. bras. pneumol; 46 (4), 2020
ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the effects of voluntary breath stacking (VBS) and involuntary breath stacking (IBS) techniques on respiratory mechanics, lung function patterns, and inspiratory capacity in tracheostomized patients. Methods: This was a randomized crossover clinical trial involving 20 tra...

A força muscular respiratória em crianças e adolescentes com Síndrome de Down é comprometida pela hipotonia generalizada que os acometem. Analisar os efeitos da fisioterapia aquática na força muscular respiratória em crianças e adolescentes com síndrome de Down. Estudo de intervenção, quasi-e...

Correlation of lung function and respiratory muscle strength with functional exercise capacity in obese individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome

J. bras. pneumol; 44 (4), 2018
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate lung function and inspiratory muscle strength, correlating them with exercise tolerance, in obese individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Methods: The sample comprised 31 adult subjects with moderate-to-severe OSAS diagnosed by polysomnography. We used ...

Avaliação do tamanho do pulmão em cães: a capacidade inspiratória define o volume corrente

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar uma nova abordagem fisiológica para a determinação do volume corrente em ventilação mecânica, de acordo com a capacidade inspiratória, e determinar se isso resulta em medidas mecânicas e de troca gasosa adequadas em cães saudáveis e em estado crítico. Métodos: Inclu...

Propuesta de ecuaciones predictivas de capacidad inspiratoria y flujo espiratorio máximo considerando mediciones torácicas: un estudio piloto

Int. j. morphol; 36 (1), 2018
RESUMEN: El objetivo del siguiente estudio fue determinar si las mediciones de tórax provocan modificaciones en las ecuaciones predictivas de capacidad inspiratoria (CI) y flujo espiratorio máximo (FEM). Se evaluaron 24 sujetos de sexo masculino entre 18 y 26 años, todos estudiantes sedentarios de la ...
