Inspiratory Muscle Training Based on Anaerobic Threshold on the Functional Capa...
Cordeiro,André Luiz Lisboa; Mascarenhas,Hayssa de Cássia; Landerson,Lucas; Araújo,Jaclene da Silva; Borges,Daniel Lago; Melo,Thiago Araújo deAbstract Introduction: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with reduced ventilatory muscle strength and consequent worsening of functional capacity (FC). Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) can be indicated, but there is still a lack of knowledge about the use of the anaerobic threshold (AT) as a basis for prescription. The objective of this study is to evaluate if IMT based on AT modifies FC and...
Teste de Sentar-Levantar Cinco Vezes: segurança e confiabilidade em pacientes i...
Melo,Thiago Araújo de; Duarte,Antonio Carlos Magalhães; Bezerra,Thaysa Samanta; França,Fabrícia; Soares,Neila Silva; Brito,DeboraRESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a segurança e as propriedades clinimétricas do Teste de Sentar-Levantar Cinco Vezes em pacientes mais velhos internados em unidade de terapia intensiva. Métodos: A segurança do teste foi avaliada segundo a incidência de eventos adversos e pela análise dos dados hemodinâmicos e respiratórios. Além disto, a confiabilidade de suas propriedades foi investigada por meio de avaliação de coefi...
Inspiratory Muscle Training and Functional Capacity in Patients Undergoing Card...
Cordeiro,André Luiz Lisboa; Melo,Thiago Araújo de; Neves,Daniela; Luna,Julianne; Esquivel,Mateus Souza; Guimarães,André Raimundo FrançaAbstract Introduction: Cardiac surgery is a highly complex procedure which generates worsening of lung function and decreased inspiratory muscle strength. The inspiratory muscle training becomes effective for muscle strengthening and can improve functional capacity. Objective: To investigate the effect of inspiratory muscle training on functional capacity submaximal and inspiratory muscle strength in patients u...
High-intensity strength training in an older population: a preliminary study
Melo,Thiago Araújo de; Sharp,Timothy; Cordeiro,André Luiz Lisboa; Brito,Débora Semesim de<p><b>BACKGROUND:</b> Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease worldwide, and it occurs mainly later in life. Many factors are associated with osteoarthritis development, including decline in muscle strength. Muscle strengthening exercises have been recognized as important approaches to osteoarthritis conservative management of the knee; however, issues related to its applicability in terms of intensity ...
