Feasibility and trend of pulmonary function in a pilot trial of aerobic walking exercise in non-ambulatory stroke survivors.
Conclusions: In non-ambulatory stroke survivors, aerobic walking exercise is feasible and safe. Also, the results are promising and suggest that aerobic walking exercise may improve lung function; more data are needed. PMID: 31622173 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Factors relating to impaired stroke volume during the 6-minute walk test in patients with systemic sclerosis.
CONCLUSIONS: Impaired stroke volume in patients with systemic sclerosis was observed at rest and during exercise, and the factors relating to the cardiac response seemed to be pulmonary function and the extent of pulmonary hypertension. PMID: 27463117 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Pulmonary function in patients with chronic stroke compared with a control group of healthy people matched by age and sex
CONCLUSIONS: People with chronic stroke show decreased lung volumes when compared with healthy people and this likely impacts on their functional capacity.PMID:35098873 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2022.2031363

Decreased Tidal Volume May Limit Cardiopulmonary Performance During Exercise in Subacute Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that diminished VT in subacute stroke patients may limit performance during submaximal and peak effort of CPET. Rehabilitation professionals should consider methods for improving pulmonary function during stroke rehabilitation. PMID: 26034936 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A Comparative Study of Smartphone Game with Spirometry for Pulmonary Function Assessment in Stroke Patients.
Conclusion: We compared the relationship between the SGA and the spirometry as certified pulmonary function test. The SGA data were statistically significant and reliable for pulmonary function assessment in stroke patients. It will therefore be useful during rehabilitation to improve pulmonary function and clinical monitoring in stroke patients. PMID: 30519571 [PubMed - in process]

Effect of expiratory muscle strength training on cough and swallowing in patients with dysphagia following stroke
Conclusion: EMT had improved on not only the coughing function but also swallowing function for a stroke patient with dysphagia. These results suggest that EMT leads to improvement of airway clearance and reduction of aspiration risk, and may be expected as a means to prevent aspiration pneumonia.

Can inspiratory muscle training benefit patients after stroke? A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
CONCLUSION: Inspiratory muscle training can be considered as an effective intervention for improving pulmonary function and cardiopulmonary endurance, and reducing pulmonary infection incidence in patients after stroke. PMID: 32493056 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effect of Tai Chi on Cardiac and Static Pulmonary Function in Older Community-Dwelling Adults at Risk of Ischemic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
ConclusionThe 12-week tai chi exercise did not have an obvious beneficial effect on cardiac structure, cardiac function and static lung function in older community-dwelling adults at risk of ischemic stroke. The study with a longer duration of intervention should be necessary. (Trial registration No. ChiCTR-TRC-13003601)

IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 2376: The Effect of Walking Backward on a Treadmill on Balance, Speed of Walking and Cardiopulmonary Fitness for Patients with Chronic Stroke: A Pilot Study
This study determines the effect of walking backward on a treadmill on balance, speed of walking and cardiopulmonary fitness for patients with chronic stroke. Subjects with chronic stroke for more than six months, whose level of Brunnstrom stage is greater than IV and who are able to walk more than eleven meters with or without assistive devices were recruited. After grouping for a single-blind clinical randomized controlled trial, the subjects were divided into two groups: eight in the control group and eight in the experimental group. All subjects were subjected to 30 min traditional physical therapy, three times a week ...

Immediate Effects of Diaphragmatic Breathing with Cervical Spine Mobilization on the Pulmonary Function and Craniovertebral Angle in Patients with Chronic Stroke
Conclusion: Diaphragm breathing with cervical joint mobilization are possible interventions to increase pulmonary function and improve the craniovertebral angle in patients with stroke. However, a complete conclusion can be reached only after a follow-up study has been conducted with a comparison of more subjects and controls.PMID:34441033 | DOI:10.3390/medicina57080826
