The changes between both the experimental and control group in the cardiopulmonary function outcome for the FEV1/FVC value did not show statistically significant changes in the experimental group, which the mean FEV1/FVC value for both men and women was (−10.45 vs. 5.17%) respectively (Table 2).
However, the use of EA in coronary surgery is controversial, and it is still unclear whether EA influences lung fluid balance, cardiopulmonary function and clinical outcome in OPCAB.
The meta-analysis was repeated for each of the following outcome measures: cardiopulmonary function (Peak VO2), accelerometer and self-report outcomes.
In recent years, a limited number of pilot studies have emerged that provide 'proof-of-principle' that supervised aerobic training is a safe and feasible supportive intervention associated with improvements in cardiopulmonary function and select patient-reported outcomes in postsurgical NSCLC.
In our population of CVU patients, simple parameters that were available on admission and did not directly reflect cardiopulmonary function were useful predictors of weaning outcome.
Outcome measures were muscle strength, cardiopulmonary function, fatigue, and health-related quality of life.
1 Sarcopenia has important clinical implications because it is associated with adverse outcomes such as physical disability, impaired cardiopulmonary function, unfavorable metabolic effects, falls, poorer quality of life, and death.
The primary and secondary outcomes consist of balance function, motor function, cardiopulmonary function, quality of life, and so on.
Several studies in the non-cancer population reported positive effects of yoga on physical outcomes including perceptual and motor skills [ 28], cardiopulmonary function [ 29], fitness [ 30], muscle strength, flexibility, stiffness, and joint pain [ 31- 33].
Additionally, multidimensional outcome measures, such as activities of daily living, quality of life, cardiopulmonary function, physiological function and so on, are used to quantify comprehensively the benefits and even risks of the program.
