No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with COPD are often unable to sustain a sufficient workload during exercise. The use of external strategies to improve exercise tolerance, such as non-invasive ventilation (NIV) and high-flow nasal therapy (HFNT) have been used. The objective was to evaluate and compare the acute effects of HFNT and NIV during exercise on cardiorespiratory parameters, dyspnea, exercise tolerance and comfort in patients with moderate to severe COPD.

Conditions

  • COPD
  • Rehabilitation
  • Exercise

Interventions

OTHER

High flow nasal therapy

All patients underwent two cardiopulmonary exercises with constant-load at 90% of the peak workload. The high flow nasal therapy was used during all exercise test.

OTHER

Non-invasive ventilation

All patients underwent two cardiopulmonary exercises with constant-load at 90% of the peak workload. The NIV was used during all exercise test.

OTHER

Control

All patients underwent two cardiopulmonary exercises with constant-load at 90% of the peak workload. The control test was performed with no additional therapy.
