ABSTRACT
El SARS-CoV-2 es un virus de la familia Coronaviridae que posee un ácido ribonucleico envuelto y monocatenario positivo. Este virus ha sido el responsable de una suma considerable de muertes a nivel mundial, y produce la enfermedad llamada covid-19, esta ocasiona compromisos multisistémicos en los pacientes, de los cuales la gran mayoría resulta con secuelas en el músculo esquelético, cardiocirculatorias, y pulmonares. La rehabilitación cardiopulmonar es un programa con múltiples componentes que pueden revertir las condiciones fisiopatológicas que sean consecuencias por el virus SARS-CoV-2. Los autores describen su experiencia con un caso clínico, con un paciente de 53 años, que ameritó internamiento por más de un mes, con diagnóstico de covid-19 -neumonía de focos múltiples con sobreinfección bacteriana-, y que durante su estadía requirió ventilación mecánica asistida, eventualmente, con traqueostomía, y que a su egreso se mantenía con dependencia de oxígeno suplementario, así como marcada disnea y sarcopenia. El paciente fue referido para rehabilitación pulmonar poscovid-19, y tras 12 semanas de rehabilitación el paciente es egresado del programa en aire ambiente, con capacidad para realizar ejercicio de moderada a alta intensidad, con saturación superior a 95 %, además de una marcada mejoría en los resultados de capacidad funcional. La rehabilitación cardiopulmonar es un programa multifacético, con diferentes componentes que logran una atención integral, capaz de recuperar al paciente para que logre su adherencia, no solo en su estado físico, sino también en su entorno psicosocial, de tal manera que se reintegra a la sociedad y se disminuyen los costos por atención y tratamientos médicos.
Summary SARS-CoV-2 is a virus of the Coronaviridae family, which has a positive single-stranded, enveloped ribonucleic acid. This virus has been responsible for a considerable number of deaths worldwide, and produces the disease called covid-19, which causes multisystemic compromise in patients, resulting in a vast majority with skeletal muscle, cardiocirculatory, and pulmonary sequelae. Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation is a program with multiple components that can reverse the pshysiopathological conditions that are consequences of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The authors describe their experience with a clinical case, a 53-year-old patient, who required hospitalization for more than a month, diagnosed with covid-19 -Multiple focus of pneumonia with bacterial infection-, and who required ventilation during hospitalization. mechanically assisted, eventually with tracheostomy, and that at discharge remained dependent on supplemental oxygen, as well as marked dyspnea and sarcopenia. The patient was referred for postcovid-19 pulmonary rehabilitation, and after 12 weeks of rehabilitation the patient is discharged from the program in room air, with the ability to perform moderate to high intensity exercise, saturation greater than 95%, and with marked improvement. in VO2 max and 6MWT results. Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation is a multifaceted program, with different components that achieve comprehensive care, capable of recovering the patient so that he achieves his adherence, not only in his physical state but also in his psychosocial environment, reintegrating him into society and reducing the costs for medical care and treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation on motor function recovery in stroke patients. Methods:From February, 2018 to February, 2019, 100 stroke patients in convalescence stage were enrolled in this study. They were divided into control group (n = 50) and observation group (n = 50). The control group received routine rehabilitation, while the observation group received cardiopulmonary rehabilitation in addition. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SAS) and pulmonary function test before and after treatment. Results:After treatment, the scores of FMA increased in both groups (t > 2.459, P < 0.05), which were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t = 2.678, P = 0.005); the scores of SAS and SDS decreased in both groups (t > 2.009, P < 0.05), which were lower in the observation group than in the control group (t > 3.261, P < 0.01); most of the forced vital capacity (FVC), the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and FEV1/FVC increased in both groups (t > 2.249, P < 0.05), which were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t > 2.147, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation could further promote the recovery of motor function of stroke patients, and improve the emotion and pulmonary function.
ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the correlations among the resting physical factors related to a six-minute walk test (6MWT) and to determine the effects of the resting physical factors on the distance and intensity related to the 6MWT in healthy female subjects. METHODS: A total of 43 healthy female subjects (22.84±3.90 yrs) participated in this study. They performed the 6MWT, and the physical factors related to the 6MWT were assessed. SPSS 20.0 was used to analyze the data, and the mean and standard deviation were calculated, and the collected data were analyzed by the Pearson's correlation coefficient (among physical factors related to 6MWT) and independent t-test (between six-minute walk distance [6MWD] groups and six-minute walk intensity [6MWI] groups). RESULTS: The 6MWD had a significant negative correlation with the resting HR (beat/min) in healthy female subjects (r= −0.49, p < 0.05). The 6MWI had a significant negative correlation with the resting systolic blood pressure (SBP) (r= −0.45, p < 0.01). A comparison of the 6MWD revealed the long distance group (LDG, 700-799 m) to be significantly higher than the middle distance group (MDG, 600-699 m) in the 6MWI (%), %predicted distance (%), predicted VO2max (mL/kg/min), resting HR (beat/min), and resting SBP (mmHg)(p < 0.05). In the comparison of 6MWI, the moderate intensity group (MIG, 64-75%HRmax) was significantly lower than the low intensity group (LIG, 50-63%HRmax) in the resting SBP (mmHg) (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the resting physical factors are related to the 6MWD and 6MWI of the 6MWT in healthy females. In particular, SBP is associated with not only the 6MWD but also the 6MWI in 6MWT.

Objective To understand the current development situation and the existing problems and deficiencies of the exercise cardiopulmonary rehabilitation development in Level 2 and above the general hospitals in Chongqing, and to analyze and find out the factors restricting the development of cardiopul-monary rehabilitation in Chongqing, and put forward suggestions for reform and development. Methods Through literature research, field visits and questionnaire survey, the condition of 115 Level Two compre-hensive hospital's rehabilitation and exercise cardiopulmonary rehabilitation development in Chongqing was understood. Among them, 500 questionnaires were sent to 6 hospitals concerned with cardiopulmonary rehabilitation service, and 483 questionnaires were received with 351 valid questionnaires. Epidata3.1 and SPSS 13.0 statistical software were used to gather research data. Results The settings rate of 115 secondary general hospital rehabilitation was 41.7％, while only 6 hospitals carried out cardiac rehabilitation and cardio pulmonary rehabilitation. There were few rehabilitation beds, the basic staffing was inadequate and the medical staff ratio was only 2 to 2.6. Besides, there is a severe shortage of full-time health instructors.Conclusion The clinical sports cardiopulmonary rehabilitation in Chongqing is as following: The construc-tion of hospital related policies is lagging behind, the overall development of rehabilitation therapy is unbal-anced, the development is late and the level of operation is low. While the lack of professional health movement means that instructors and medical staff have cognitive impairment, residents have low accep-tance of sports rehabilitation therapy and there are insufficient pathogens, which are the main factors that restrict the development of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
