简要总结
Pulmonary rehabilitation programs (PRP) are a key factor of comprehensive management of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Interactive game-based systems have been proposed to improve effects and/or compliance to PRP. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of wiifit nintendo as a PRP tool in COPD patients with a randomized controlled trial methods. The patients were divided into experimental (EG) and control (CG) group. The EG performed wiifit program (yoga, strength training, aerobic exercise) twice a week for 6 weeks, the CG performed cycle ergometer twice a week for 6 weeks. The investigators evaluated pre and post treatment: Six-minute walking test, Transitional Dyspnea Index, and Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire.The hypothesis are the EG able to show improvement in exercise tolerance, dyspnea, and quality of life.
详细描述
In this randomised clinical trial (RCT) subjects were assigned to two groups: the Experimental Group (EG) received a hospital based outpatient PRP and Wii Fit videogame program; the Control Group (CG) received only a standard hospital based outpatient PRP. Researchers evaluating results and patients were not blind to treatment. Patients maintained their usual drug medication according to accepted Guidelines.
Patients of both groups received for six weeks three weekly 30-minute sessions of supervised standard cycle exercise training at outpatient clinics under the supervision of doctors and nurses. Oxygen pulse oximetry (SpO2), arterial blood pressure, heart rate (HR) and dyspnoea (by a 10-point modified Borg scale) were monitored.
In addition to each session of exercise training, patients of EG performed also 30 minute session of supervised video-game assisted program in a dedicated room equipped with Wii Nintendo, balance board, and flatscreen television. Participants played 3 different games per session:
- Yoga with "deep breathing" and "half moon" : patients performed technique of breathing and held a particular pose or series of poses for 10 minutes.
- "torso twist" : a strength training exercise in which patients perform a number of repetitions of the selected exercise.
- aerobic exercises "free run": the patient runs in place while keeping the connected Wii Remote in his or her pocket, which acts as a pseudo-pedometer.
The primary outcome measure was the 6MWT. Results are shown as mean (Standard Deviation: SD) for continuous and as numbers (percentage frequency) for discrete variables. To determine the sample size, an earlier study showed a post-program 70.4 (18.3) meter mean increase in 6MWT.

结局指标
主要结局
Exercise tolerance
时间窗: 6 weeks
Before and after the pulmonary rehabilitation program the exercise tolerance is measured by Six minute walking distance test (6MWT). Participants have to walk as far as possible for 6 minutes. Participants will walk back and forth in the hallway. Six minutes is a long time to walk, participants are permitted to slow down, to stop and to rest as necessary. The scale will be in meter (m). Higher values represent a better outcome
次要结局
- Dyspnea(6 weeks)
- Health related quality of life: St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ)(6 weeks)
