Spirometry values were obtained preoperatively and on 2nd and 5th postoperative days.
In the PS group, in which pain was found to be more severe,the decreases in the spirometry values were greater.
In conclusion, new predicted spirometry values were obtained in a broad sample of the Brazilian population.
Pulmonary function was evaluated by spirometry, andthe participants had to show normal spirometry values to be included in the study.
Spirometry values, maximal respiratory pressures and sample characterization are shown in Table 1.
In the present study, we observed that pulmonaryresection has a direct, negative impact on spirometry values in cancer patients.
Table 2 shows spirometry values for the control group at the beginning of the program, at hospital admission and before surgery.
Mouth-breathing children have head projection and neck hyperlordosis which increase with age,besides reduction in spirometry values.
Spirometry values showed differences between groups p< 0.05; however, there was no difference between times p> 0.05.
In the present study,we aimed at evaluating the effects that pulmonary resection has on spirometry values, as well as on QoL, in lung cancer patients.
Spirometry values in the 6 months prior to study inclusion when the COPD was stable were obtained from patient records.
Comparisons between morning and evening PEF, as well as spirometry values between treatment and placebo groups, were carried out using the unpaired Student's t-test.
Regarding the pulmonary function variables,the present study showed that there was a weak but significant correlation of the CAT scores with some spirometry values and 6MWD.
According to these authors,the increases in spirometry values represented a clinical improvement, as well as a more appropriate use of the inhalation therapy.
In order to validate the CAT, we assessed the correlations Spearman's correlation test of its scores with those obtained on theSGRQ gold standard questionnaire, HADS, and MMRC dyspnea scale, as well as with 6MWD and spirometry values.
The analysis of pre and postoperative spirometry values and PaO2 by the paired test t Student demonstrated: in GL, FVC p 0.020; FEV1 p 0.022; and PaO2 p 306.
Another important factor to be discussed is the fact that we did not exclude the individuals who reported clinical history consistent with the diagnosis of chronic bronchitis whose spirometry values did not reveal airflow obstruction.
The COPD group showedmoderate degree of obstruction, whereas healthy individuals showed spirometry values within the normal range FEV1expected% 50.65±19.08 and 94.05±0 9.44 respectively, p.
In order to validate the ICFS, we used Spearman's correlation test to assess the strength of the correlations between its scores and those obtained on the FSS, HADS, SF-36, and ESS,as well as the 6MWD, spirometry values, and CRP levels.
A significant positive difference was found between the pre- and post-intervention spirometry values for both groups, with an improvement in G1 and worsening in G2 Table 3.
The intensity of postoperative pain certainly plays an important role in preservation of pulmonary function after surgery,a fact confirmed by the decrease in spirometry values in all patients.
However, one study stated that patients with CRI undergoing conservative treatments might have spirometry values within the normal range because of greater preservation of pulmonary functions, just as observed in the present study.
The study population comprised 3,119 asymptomatic individuals not taking cardiovascular medication; the population had undergone complete blood count, 12-lead electrocardiography at rest, and2D-color Doppler electrocardiography with flow mapping and exhibited normal pretest spirometry values and CPET without pathological changes.
We excluded 6 subjects: 2 presented abnormal spirometry values; 1 dropped out because of anxiety at the outset of the testing; and 3 failed to complete all required examinations. Therefore, 48 healthy subjects 19 males and 29 females were included in the study. All of the subjects were White, the mean age was 31.2± 12.1 years range, 16-61 years, and the mean BMI was 23.5± 3.4 kg/m.
In this study, the measures of lung function did not show major changes, which was expected,since all the volunteers are healthy, with spirometry values above 80% of the predicted, meaning normal pulmonary function.
Although the only group that showed ventilatory function benefits was the one receiving training,as shown by the spirometry values at hospital admission, the improvement in the MaxIP regardless of training suggests that a previous methodological knowledge by the patients could have contributed to better testing conditions at hospital admission.
A current study with 48 healthy elderly subjects randomized into group therapy with RESPIRONr and the other therapy group with Voldyner presented an increase in some variables, such as: respiratory muscle strength,lung function spirometry values and thoracoabdominal mobility in both groups by approving these devices as good allies of respiratory therapy.
In the absence of other explanations, exercise-induced dyspnea is often labeled as a manifestation of asthma; however, one group of authors reported that, during exercise, patients with exercise-induced dyspnea but without asthma coughed more andhad more airway symptoms than did healthy controls, even though the spirometry values remained unchanged.
In addition to the surgical site, other factors also stand out, such as advanced age, presence of pulmonary disease or other medical illnesses, smoking and its intensity, obesity, malnutrition, type of anesthesia, duration of surgery andsurgical technique, abnormal spirometry values, decreased ability to exercise and prolonged time of preoperative hospitalization.
Forgiarini Junior et al. demonstrated that physical therapy, when initiated in the post-anesthetic recovery room,might be beneficial for patients who underwent abdominal surgery because the pulmonary function values in patients who received physical therapy earlier had lower variation in postoperative spirometry values compared to the preoperative values than the group that started physical therapy on the ward.
