“…Assistive devices, lifestyle changes, and programs of physical activity and exercise may help with the fatigue, weakness, pain, and sleep problems frequently reported by these participants. Recent studies have documented that carefully designed and monitored progressive resistance exercises and cardiopulmonary conditioning can decrease general weakness and fatigue, increase muscle strength, improve cardiorespiratory fitness, and increase the efficiency of ambulation in polio survivors (Agre, Rodriquez, & Franke, 1997; Ernstoff, Wetterqvist, Kvist, & Grumby, 1996; Klein, Whyte, Esquenazi, Keenan, & Costello, 2002; March of Dimes, 2001; Milner‐Brown, 1993; Willen, Sunnerhagen, & Grimby, 2001). Similar research studies testing behavioral interventions for sleep problems and pain are needed.…”
