“…Though the peak oxygen consumption did not increase significantly in comparison to the control group, the improved AT might suggest an improvement in the aerobic capacity of the yoga group. These same results have been observed in COPD patients after practicing Hatha yoga [12,13]. The AT elevation was remarkably higher in the yoga group, suggesting a delayed onset of anaerobic metabolism and lactic acid accumulation after exercise training.…”

Objective: To evaluate the effects of yoga on exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a rare cystic lung disease in women. Patients and methods: This was a nonrandomized, controlled study conducted in Beijing, China (August 27, 2017-April 26, 2018). Twenty-six participants were allocated to the intervention (yoga) group (n = 13) or control group (n = 13). The yoga intervention involved a 24-week program of yoga class training for 90 min once a week and no fewer than 2 at-home sessions per week (at least 15 min per session). The 6-min walking distance (6MWD), lung function, serum vascular endothelial growth factor-D (VEGF-D) levels, quality of life, and symptoms of anxiety and depression were measured at baseline, 12-week and 24-week follow-up. An incremental cardiopulmonary exercise test was conducted at baseline and the 24-week follow-up. Results: Eleven patients completed the yoga training program. The yoga group exhibited improvements in the following outcomes versus those of the control group: 6MWD (+ 55 ± 29 m vs + 18 ± 49 m, P = 0.04), anaerobic threshold (3.4 ± 2.4 ml/min/kg vs 1.6 ± 1.4 ml/min/kg, P = 0.035) and peak work load (11.7 ± 14.6 W vs 0.2 ± 9.1 W, P = 0.027). There was no significant difference in peak oxygen consumption (VO 2 peak), lung function, VEGF-D level, and quality of life between the yoga and control groups. No adverse effects were found in the yoga group. Conclusion: Yoga is a feasible and safe intervention for pulmonary rehabilitation and potentially improves exercise capacity in patients with LAM.

“…The result of this research is in line with the results obtained by Katiyar [9] and Donesky [10] which showed that there was a significant increase in 6-MWD in a COPD group which took part in yoga exercises. Ranjita [12] also obtained a similar result showing a significant increase in COPD patients symptoms after completing yoga exercises over a 12 week period. The increase in 6-MWD is due to the effect of yoga on the musculoskeletal and cardiorespiratory systems, improving cardiovascular efficiency and homeostatic control of the body.…”

“…Relaxation techniques have been found to increase cardiopulmonary resistance through body and breathing control, which manifests clinically as lung capacity increase, oxygen delivery increase and breathing rate reduction. Therefore, overall, it can increase exercise capacity at 6-MWD [12].…”

Introduction: Yoga is used in the treatment of various diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, no studies have assessed the effect of yoga on COPD patients in Indonesia. The difference between this study and similar studies completed in other countries lies in the type of yoga exercises completed, the method in which they were completed, and in certain, unique demographic characteristics. This study aims to analyze the effect of yoga on FEV 1 , 6-minute walk distance, and quality of life in patients with COPD group B in Indonesia. Material and methods: This article reflects research done in the form of an experimental study using a randomized controlled trial with pre and post-test control group design. The samples were divided into 2 groups: the treatment group (yoga practice for 1 hour, 2 times a week for 12 weeks) and the control group (untreated with yoga, given lung rehabilitation brochure). Assessment of the effect of yoga exercises on lung function parameters (FEV 1), 6-minute walk distance and quality of life were used using SGRQ questionnaires in COPD group B. Results: 33 COPD patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. 30 patients completed the study. Pre and post yoga results were evaluated in the treatment group versus the control group and then further assessed using statistical tests. There was a significant increase in FEV 1 , 6-MWD and quality of life using a SGRQ questionnaire after 12 weeks of yoga (p < 0.05) as well as a a significant change in FEV 1 , 6-MWD and quality of life in the treatment group (p < 0.05) when compared with the control group (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Yoga affects FEV 1 , 6-MWD, and quality of life in patients with Group B COPD.

Exercise-based rehabilitation for major non-communicable diseases in low-resource settings: a scoping review

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

IntroductionWhile there is substantial evidence for the benefits of exercise-based rehabilitation in the prevention and management of non-communicable disease (NCD) in high-resource settings, it is not evident that these programmes can be effectively implemented in a low-resource setting (LRS). Correspondingly, it is unclear if similar benefits can be obtained. The objective of this scoping review was to summarise existing studies evaluating exercise-based rehabilitation, rehabilitation intervention characteristics and outcomes conducted in an LRS for patients with one (or more) of the major NCDs.MethodsThe following databases were searched from inception until October 2018: PubMed/Medline, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO and trial registries. Studies on exercise-based rehabilitation for patients with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer or chronic respiratory disease conducted in an LRS were included. Data were extracted with respect to study design (eg, type, patient sample, context), rehabilitation characteristics (eg, delivery model, programme adaptations) and included outcome measures.ResultsThe search yielded 5930 unique citations of which 60 unique studies were included. Study populations included patients with cardiovascular disease (48.3%), diabetes (28.3%), respiratory disease (21.7%) and cancer (1.7%). Adaptations included transition to predominant patient-driven home-based rehabilitation, training of non-conventional health workers, integration of rehabilitation in community health centres, or triage based on contextual or patient factors. Uptake of adapted rehabilitation models was 54%, retention 78% and adherence 89%. The majority of the outcome measures included were related to body function (65.7%).ConclusionsThe scope of evidence suggests that adapted exercise-based rehabilitation programmes can be implemented in LRS. However, this scope of evidence originated largely from lower middle-income, urban settings and has mostly been conducted in an academic context which may hamper extrapolation of evidence to other LRS. Cost-benefits, impact on activity limitations and participation restrictions, and subsequent mortality and morbidity are grossly understudied.
