COPD

The effectiveness of chest vibration with simultaneous aerobic training in COPD The aim of the Italian researchers was to investigate the effect of a 4-week standard pulmonary rehabilitation on dyspnea and physical functionality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), compared to the effects of the same treatment but combined with the administration of […]

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death in humans. An important element of pulmonary rehabilitation is the training of peripheral muscles that stimulates the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems. Unfortunately, standard resistance exercises or training on a treadmill carry a risk of acute dyspnea or hypoxemia. Research shows that whole-body […]

Whole-body vibration training (WBVT) has great potential in the rehabilitation of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), positively affecting physical fitness. This may be due to the beneficial action on balance. This hypothesis was tested by German scientists from the University of Marburg, the Technical University of Munich and the Schön Klinik Berchtesgadener Land, […]
