- Khon Kaen University
- Brief Summary
Aim of this study is to compare cardiopulmonary response to conical-PEP breathing during exercise in older people.
- Detailed Description
It is known that all most structures and physiological functions deteriorate with age, leading to decrease exercise performance, functional decline and gradual decrease of physical activity in aging.
The most essential change of respiratory physiology are: dilatation of alveoli, enlargement of air space, decrease gas exchange surface area, loss of supporting tissue for distal airway (senile emphysema), decrees of chest wall compliance and decrease of respiratory muscle strength. These changes leading to decrease lung elastic recoil, increase residual volume and functional capacity, and increase work of breathing at rest. In addition, such changes affect respiratory function, especially dynamic hyperinflation (DH) development which could be one of the factors relate to dyspnea during exercise in aging Positive expiratory pressure (PEP) therapy for DH treatment during exercise was reported in several studies.
It is possible that PEP breathing may improve cardiopulmonary response to exercise in older people.

Group Intervention Description Sham-PEP breathing Constant work load cycling test Patients will perform a constant work load cycling test with sham-positive expiratory pressure breathing util symptom limit. Conical-PEP breathing Constant work load cycling test Patients will perform a constant work load cycling test with positive expiratory pressure breathing using a conical positive expiratory pressure device until symptom limit. Conical-PEP breathing a conical positive expiratory pressure device Patients will perform a constant work load cycling test with positive expiratory pressure breathing using a conical positive expiratory pressure device until symptom limit.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change of Inspiratory capacity (IC) resting, immediate post exercise test and end recovery period of 10 minutes Participants will be measured IC with slow vital capacity maneuver following American thoracic Society (ATS) and European Respiratory Society (ERS) statement for spirometry (2005).
