Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)) is the third leading cause of death in the United State. Patients with COPD often experience breathlessness and fatigue, making physical activity challenging.
1. Emphysema, a type of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), is defined as a long term and progressive condition cause of shortness of breath but depending to the stage of lung function as a result of damage to tissues of the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs. In the study of 63 patients with stable COPD (spirometric GOLD stages 2–4) and 17 age- and comorbidity-matched controls, researchers found that in contrast to asthma, COPD is characterised by elevated concentrations of both BDNF and TGF-beta1 in serum. The stage-dependent association with lung function supports the hypothesis that these platelet mediators may play a role in the pathogenesis of COPD(1). In some cases, but rarely, Emphysema is caused by Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency emphysema.
2. Chronic bronchitishat
Chronic bronchitis is a chronic inflammation of the lung’s bronchi cause of the increased production of mucus in the lung of that leading to difficult breathing.
People With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease may benefit in Regular Walking, Researchers of the joint study lead by the University of Mancheste, also revealed that dialogue support and primary task support techniques are both acceptable and likely to be persuasive by PwCOPD to participate in daily walking(2).
In an Internet-Mediated Pedometer-Based Walking Program for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease patients, at 12 months, regular physical activity (PA) improve domains of HRQL(4) and is recommended for persons with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)(3).
Dt. Zakrisson AB and research team at the Örebro University said, " On average, there were significant improvements (of exacerbation frequency) in the six-minute walking-test and the Clinical COPD Questionnaire from baseline to the one-year follow-up"(4) in contributing to long term reduced decline in lung function of patients with moderate to severe COPD(5).
Unfortunately, not all kinds of excise are beneficiary to patients of COPD, Directly engaged high-intensity exercise has found to increase serious risks and mortality in patients with severe COPD(6), but light-intensity physical activity may increase the confidence and willingness of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to engage in more intense physical activity, and may serve as an intermediate goal to increase uptake of pulmonary rehabilitation(7).,
In fact, Patients with COPD with a low level of Physical Activity or who reduced their PA over time were more likely to experience a significant increase in the rate of hospitalization for eCOPD. Changes to a higher level of PA or maintaining a moderate or high level of PA over time, with a low intensity activity such as walking for at least 3-6 km/day, could reduce the rate of hospitalizations for eCOPD(8).
