This suggests that assessment of oxygen cost of walking in younger patients may allow more accurate prediction of long-term ambulation and more reasoned orthotic and surgical decision-making.doi:10.1016/0966-6362(95)99107-VC DuffyN HillH Kerr Graham...
The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) framework was used to evaluate the evidence quality of reported articles.10 The rating of each study was downgraded depending on its risk of bias, imprecision, inconsistency, indirectness, and publication bias. In ...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships of oxygen consumption (VO2), heart rate (HR), and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) during FNS ambulation by persons with SCI paraplegia. Eleven persons with thoracic level paraplegia, aged 21.5 to 38.0 years, participated in an...
The mechanisms of oxygen uptake (\({\dot{\text{V}}}{\text{O}}_{2}\)) slow component in the severe exercise intensity domain are still a matter of debate. We tested the hypothesis that the rate of blood lactate ([La]) accumulation above maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) is a majo...
assessment (4 weeks), so we cannot speculate whether the observed relief in depressive symptoms is durable. Fourth, the external validity of the results is limited because the study was conducted in a particular group of patients; outpatients with mild to moderate depression who live in the ...
Supplemental oxygen in comparison to placebo increases exercise capacity in patients performing single-assessment exercise tests. The addition of supplemental oxygen during exercise training may enable individuals with COPD to tolerate higher levels of activity with less exertional symptoms, ultimately ...
Measurement: Assessment of oxygen uptake, heart rate, and perceived exertion occurred during two 10-minute walks interspersed with a 30-minute rest on 2 separate days. Measurement of spasticity occurred three times during each session. Results: Oxygen consumption and perceived exertion were unchanged....
To determine whether minute ventilation-to-carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO2), oxygen pulse (VO2/HR), and rate pressure product (RPP: VO2 * HR/1000) can e
