“…The intensity of the NMES stimulation depends greatly on patient tolerance and adherence to the programme. In line with previous reports, 14,16 our programme was very well tolerated and the patients were able to successfully increase the training stimulation intensity (Fig. 2D).…”

Purpose: The objective of this study was to review clinical trials of the effectiveness of physiotherapy compared with standard care, focused mainly on the functional status of patients hospitalized for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). Methods: Search strategies were developed for each of the databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science). The study eligibility criteria were as follows: (1) The objective was to assess the effect and efficacy of physiotherapy compared with standard care (which included only medical and pharmacological treatment); (2) adults subjects had AECOPD; (3) one of the outcome measures was functional status, defined as an individual's ability to perform the normal daily activities required to meet basic needs, fulfill usual roles, and maintain health and well-being; (4) it was a clinical trial; (5) it was written in English; (6) it was published between January 2009 and February 2016; and (7) the full-text article was available. Results: The review revealed that for patients hospitalized for AECOPD, exercise, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, breathing exercises, and chest therapy significantly improved their functional status compared with standard care. Conclusions: A variety of physiotherapy modalities have been shown to improve functional status compared with standard care among patients hospitalized for AECOPD; other outcome measures also showed improvements.Key Words: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; hospitalization; cardiorespiratory physiotherapy; rehabilitation; systematic review.

“…A total of 20 records for 18 studies met the criteria for inclusion in this review (Figure 1). Of the studies included in this review, 19 (95%) were published in peer-reviewed journals [2][3][4]12,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] and 1 (5%) was a published abstract for which further information was obtained from the author 34 (see Supplemental Table S1). These 20 studies described 16 unique randomized controlled trials, [2][3][4]12,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][29][30][31]34 and 2 were single-group studies.…”

Exercise training for adults hospitalized with an acute respiratory condition: a systematic scoping review

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objective: In adults hospitalized with an acute or chronic respiratory condition, to determine what has been reported regarding exercise programmes in terms of content, tolerability, evaluation and adverse events. Data sources: A systematic search was conducted of electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, PEDro, The Cochrane Library), trial registries and conference abstracts (Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand Annual Scientific Meeting, the European Respiratory Society Congress, the American Thoracic Society International Conference). Review methods: Studies were included if they (1) recruited adults hospitalized with an acute or chronic respiratory condition, (2) described an exercise programme that targeted peripheral muscles and (3) reported that ⩾80% of the sample had initiated training within 72 hours of hospitalization. Results: The last search was conducted on 2 June 2019. Of the 6282 records identified, 20 met the study criteria. These described 18 separate studies (2018 participants). Studies were conducted in adults hospitalized with an exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or with community-acquired pneumonia. The content of exercise programmes included aerobic and/or resistance training, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, whole-body vibration or movement out of bed. In eight studies (44%), the initial session was prescribed using objective measures of exercise capacity, peripheral muscle force and the ability to undertake activities of daily living. Across 7420 training sessions, seven adverse events were reported. Conclusion: Methods used to prescribe and titrate exercise programmes in adults hospitalized with an acute or an exacerbation of a chronic respiratory condition were disparate. When reported, programmes were well tolerated and adverse events were infrequent.
