Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides up-to-date knowledge on all aspects of the multidisciplinary approach to pulmonary rehabilitation that is essential in order to achieve optimal results. It will be an ideal resource especially for pulmonologists in training, but will also be of value for physiotherapists, other health care professionals, and technicians. Detailed information is presented on the diverse program components in pulmonary rehabilitation, with clear explanation of the roles of the nutritionist, psychologist, occupational therapist, respiratory nurse, and physical activity coach. Guidance is provided on identification of candidates for pulmonary rehabilitation and on all aspects of assessment, including exercise capacity, muscle function, and physical activity. Patient-centered, economic, and other outcomes are examined, with separate discussion of combined outcome assessment. Furthermore, due consideration is given to organizational aspects of pulmonary rehabilitation and to rehabilitation in specific scenarios, e.g., thoracic oncology and surgery, transplantation, and the ICU. The authors are internationally recognized experts selected for their expertise in the topics they discuss.

Book Synopsis Participation in Daily and Social Activities in Individuals Living with COPD by : Emilie Michalovic
Download or read book Participation in Daily and Social Activities in Individuals Living with COPD written by Emilie Michalovic and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Individuals living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a high burden of disease, which impairs their participation in daily and social activities (Disler et al., 2014). To help manage the burden of disease, they are encouraged to participate in regular physical activity (PA; O'Donnell et al., 2007). However, most individuals living with COPD are not meeting PA recommendations (Watz et al., 2009) and indicate that PA programs for individuals with COPD fail to capitalize on social interactions (Marques et al., 2013; Thorpe et al., 2012). Peers can create supportive interactions in PA settings (Poureslami et al., 2017). The overall purpose of this dissertation was to develop and preliminary test a PA and peer support intervention to promote participation in daily and social activities for individuals living with COPD. The first manuscript identified the daily and social activities of individuals living with COPD and their satisfaction with their participation. The survey results indicated that individuals with COPD wanted to increase their participation in PA and movement-related activities (e.g., climbing up a hill). The primary barrier to participation was breathlessness, whereas, the primary facilitator to participation was incorporating activity into your routine. The second manuscript was a scoping review of peer support in COPD. It identified that most peer support research with individuals living with COPD was either an intervention or an informal peer support experience. The review provided three recommendations for future research: i) peer support should be defined with consistent terminology, ii) peer support interactions should be evaluated, and iii) peer support research should be grounded in theory, such as self-determination theory. The first two manuscripts highlighted a need to design PA interventions to promote participation in daily and social activities and to understand the roles of peers in these interventions. Thus, the third manuscript was a qualitative exploration of the PA experiences of individuals living with COPD and presented their views on a PA and peer support intervention to promote participation in daily and social activities. Individuals living with COPD were interested in participation-based programming and suggested peer support be incorporated in a group setting. They suggested the future program be tailored to their needs, provide education, and be physically and socially accessible. Informed by the three previous studies, the fourth manuscript aimed to develop a PA and peer support intervention to promote participation in daily and social activities for individuals living with COPD. This mixed-methods proof-of-concept study aimed to determine the feasibility of the 8-week online intervention. Based on a priori feasibility metrics, the intervention was feasible, meeting adherence, engagement, and activity participation criteria. Participants achieved clinical improvements in their activity participation and meaningful improvements in functional capacity. Through post-intervention interviews, participants highlighted that the intervention: supported their basic psychological needs of autonomy, relatedness, and competence, provided appropriate exercises that promoted participation in daily and social activities, and the peer support component allowed them to form connections and shared understanding. In sum, this doctoral research demonstrated the need to examine participation in daily and social activities for individuals living with COPD. It addressed a need for increased PA and social interaction opportunities in this population. This dissertation discusses a novel behavioural intervention for increasing participation in daily and social activities for individuals living with COPD and provides steps for future development of participation-based programing"--
Book Synopsis A Nationwide Framework for Surveillance of Cardiovascular and Chronic Lung Diseases by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book A Nationwide Framework for Surveillance of Cardiovascular and Chronic Lung Diseases written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-08-26 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic diseases are common and costly, yet they are also among the most preventable health problems. Comprehensive and accurate disease surveillance systems are needed to implement successful efforts which will reduce the burden of chronic diseases on the U.S. population. A number of sources of surveillance data-including population surveys, cohort studies, disease registries, administrative health data, and vital statistics-contribute critical information about chronic disease. But no central surveillance system provides the information needed to analyze how chronic disease impacts the U.S. population, to identify public health priorities, or to track the progress of preventive efforts. A Nationwide Framework for Surveillance of Cardiovascular and Chronic Lung Diseases outlines a conceptual framework for building a national chronic disease surveillance system focused primarily on cardiovascular and chronic lung diseases. This system should be capable of providing data on disparities in incidence and prevalence of the diseases by race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and geographic region, along with data on disease risk factors, clinical care delivery, and functional health outcomes. This coordinated surveillance system is needed to integrate and expand existing information across the multiple levels of decision making in order to generate actionable, timely knowledge for a range of stakeholders at the local, state or regional, and national levels. The recommendations presented in A Nationwide Framework for Surveillance of Cardiovascular and Chronic Lung Diseases focus on data collection, resource allocation, monitoring activities, and implementation. The report also recommends that systems evolve along with new knowledge about emerging risk factors, advancing technologies, and new understanding of the basis for disease. This report will inform decision-making among federal health agencies, especially the Department of Health and Human Services; public health and clinical practitioners; non-governmental organizations; and policy makers, among others.

Book Synopsis Optimizing Physical Activity and Work Participation in Individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by : Riany de Sousa Sena
Download or read book Optimizing Physical Activity and Work Participation in Individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease written by Riany de Sousa Sena and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a systemic disease associated with disabling dyspnea, reduced exercise capacity,and increased mortality. As symptoms get worse, individuals with COPD become less physically active and therefore, more deconditioned. The loss of physical function entails a corresponding loss in lifestyle and social roles, leading to a decrease in quality of life. Effective management of the disease includes rehabilitation aiming at increasing exercise and physical activity (PA), maximizing function to the highest level possible within the limitations inherent to the disease in order to improve quality of life. The overall objectives of this thesis were: i) to maximize by new management approaches exercise training and long-term adherence to PA behaviour in individual with COPD by contributing to evidence of new models of exercise and self-management (SM) support tailored to patients' needs and capacities, and ii) to improve our understanding of COPD with respect to work participation and to better identify individuals at risk.The first study consists of a randomized controlled trial comparing the effects of eccentric and concentric cycle training on quadriceps muscle strength and functional outcomes in advanced COPD. Eccentric cycle was associated with greater relative improvements in quadriceps strength and similar gains in exercise capacity, but with lower sensations of dyspnea when compared with concentric cycling. The second study demonstrates the systematic development of a theory-informed web-based intervention to support SM of PA in COPD. We developed an interactive and theory-informed intervention. The third study tested the acceptability and usability of a web-based PA intervention from the perspective of COPD patients. The web-based intervention was acceptable and usable by COPD patients, resulting in short-term improvements in daily step counts. In addition, opportunities to refine the intervention and solve usability issues were identified.The fourth study evaluated work productivity loss in COPD subjects categorized according to the GOLD ABCD classification in comparison to non-COPD subjects, and it estimated the predictive value of clinical measures such as symptom burden and exacerbations. This study was embedded in a population-based, longitudinal study, the Canadian Cohort Obstructive Lung Disease (CanCOLD) study. Our results showed that work productivity loss is higher in COPD subjects with high symptom burden in comparison to those with low symptom burden and non-COPD subjects, emphasizing the validity of the ABCD GOLD classification and the validity of the CAT questionnaire. The findings of the studies presented in this thesis suggest that ECC could be an alternate and/or adjunct exercise training modality for pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with advanced COPD. In addition, by employing a user-centered design approach, a theory-informed web-based physical activity intervention including activity monitoring, feedback and education was found to be easy to use and to have the potential to promote daily PA behavior in subjects with COPD. Future work will be required to test the effectiveness of these treatment strategies in a larger controlled clinical trial. Finally, the societal burden of COPD individuals with high burden calls for further awareness of the relevance of early recognition and optimal treatment of individuals with mild to moderate COPD. Challenges to the implementation of these interventions are presented." --

Book Synopsis Inclusive Design by : P.John Clarkson
Download or read book Inclusive Design written by P.John Clarkson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inclusive Design: What's in It for Me? presents a comprehensive review of current practice in inclusive design. With emphasis on new ideas for improvement and arguments for wider implementation in future, a unique combination of leading opinions on inclusive design from both industry and academia are offered. The theme throughout encourages a positive view of inclusive design as a good and profitable process and to produce a change to more effective approaches to "design for all". Inclusive Design is composed of two parts with a common chapter structure so that the business and design arguments in favour of inclusive design can be easily compared and assimilated: The Business Case presents the industrial and management benefits of inclusive design. It concentrates on demographic, legal and ethical reasons for all businesses being better off taking inclusivity into account in the design of their products or services. Case histories demonstrating the commercial success of inclusive design are drawn from the experiences of companies such as Tesco, Fiat and The Royal Mail. The Designers' Case focuses on the factors a designer needs to take into account when dealing with inclusivity. "Who is going to use my design?" "What do they need from my design?" "How do I take any medical needs into account?" "Just how "inclusive" is my design?" are all questions answered in this section which presents the necessary tools for effective inclusive design. This part of the book aims to convince a designer that inclusive design is a realistic goal. Inclusive Design will appeal to designers, researchers and students and to managers making decisions about the research and design strategies of their companies.
