About
The purpose of this study is to evaluate respiratory parameters and functional capacity in coronary artery patients.
Full description
Decreased pulmonary function as measured by forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), or peak expiratory flow (PEF) has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. A low MIP value may generally indicate weak muscle strength and therefore be an indicator of general poor health. Respiratory muscle weakness and decreased respiratory muscle endurance affect exercise tolerance in individuals with chronic disease, including cardiovascular disease. Studies have supported the association of grip strength with frailty, physical activity, diabetes, functional limitation, nutritional status, metabolic syndrome, and mortality.
The study will evaluate respiratory parameters and functional capacity in coronary artery patients.
