“…This result may be due to reduction of the incidence or the severity of post-operative pulmonary complications in the patients of the study group. The finding of the present study was in accordance withMatheus et.al, (2012) (77) who showed a significant reduction in length of stay in the coronary care unit in the study group. Also, Elkins et.al, (2105) (70) found that inspiratory muscle training significantly shortened the length of stay in the ICU.…”

“…DLCO is a surrogate marker for pulmonary function and is often reduced in heart failure patients due to thickening of the alveolar‐capillary membrane with subsequent impairment of gas exchange . Though it remains unclear whether pulmonary function improves over time, much of the literature is focused on the improvement of baseline PFT levels at approximately 3 months after cardiac surgery .…”

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are increasingly being used as life-saving therapy in patients with end-stage heart failure. The changes in spirometry following LVAD implantation and subsequent unloading of the left ventricle and pulmonary circulation are unknown. In this study, we explored long-term changes in spirometry after LVAD placement. In this retrospective study, we compared baseline preoperative pulmonary function test (PFT) results to post-LVAD spirometric measurements. Our results indicated that pulmonary function tests were significantly reduced after LVAD placement (forced expiratory volume in one second [FEV1 ]: 1.9 vs.1.7, P = 0.016; forced vital capacity [FVC]: 2.61 vs. 2.38, P = 0.03; diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide [DLCO]: 14.75 vs. 11.01, P = 0.01). Subgroup analysis revealed greater impairment in lung function in patients receiving HeartMate II (Thoratec, Pleasanton, CA, USA) LVADs compared with those receiving HeartWare (HeartWare, Framingham, MA, USA) devices. These unexpected findings may result from restriction of left anterior hemi-diaphragm; however, further prospective studies to validate our findings are warranted.

“…Among the postoperative respiratory complications, one aggravating factor is the loss of respiratory muscle strength [ 11 ] , but so far, it is unknown whether such loss is also reproduced in peripheral muscle strength.…”

IntroductionPeripheral muscle strength has been little explored in the literature in the context of cardiac rehabilitation.ObjectiveTo evaluate the peripheral muscle strength of patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.MethodsThis was a longitudinal observational study. The peripheral muscle strength was measured using isometric dynamometry lower limb (knee extensors and flexors) at three different times: preoperatively (M1), the day of discharge (M2) and hospital discharge (M3). Participants received physiotherapy pre and postoperatively during the days of hospitalization during the morning and afternoon.ResultsTwenty-two patients were evaluated. The values of peripheral muscle strength of knee extensors preoperative found were about 50% lower than those predicted for the healthy population. When comparing muscle strength prior (M1), with the remaining evaluation, found himself in a fall of 29% for the movement of knee extension and 25% for knee flexion in M2 and a decrease of 10% movement for knee extension and 13% for knee flexion in M3 when comparing with M1.ConclusionThe values of peripheral muscle strength prior of the study patients were lower than predicted for the healthy population of the same age. After the surgical event this reduction is even more remarkable, being reestablished until the time of discharge, to values close to baseline.
