Rehabilitación en la arteriopatía de los miembros inferiores
La rehabilitacion en la arteriopatia de los miembros inferiores se basa en programas personalizados que asocian readaptacion al esfuerzo y educacion terapeutica. Aumenta las capacidades fisicas, sobre todo la distancia de la marcha, permite reanudar las actividades, reduce los factores de riesgo y mejora los frecuentes trastornos del estado de animo que se observan en estos pacientes. Mejora las anomalias fisiopatologicas, en especial el desequilibrio neurovegetativo y la disfuncion endotelial. Se recomienda un programa ambulatorio de al menos tres sesiones por semana durante 2-3 meses. La evaluacion funcional (pruebas de esfuerzo maximo, pruebas de marcha) permite adaptar el programa de re…
Effects of an eccentric training personalized by a low rate of perceived exertion on the maximal capacities in chronic heart failure: a randomized controlled trial
International audience; BACKGROUND: The eccentric (ECC) training, in spite of its potential interest (slightest request of the cardiorespiratory system) compared with the concentric (CON) training, is not applied during the rehabilitation of the chronic heart failure (CHF). The main reasons are the difficulty personalizing the ECC exercises by avoiding the muscle complications and the lack of information concerning the specific effects on the maximal capacities in CHF patients.AIM: To compare — following a prior study on the feasibility and on the functional impacts — the effects on maximal capacities and tolerance in CHF of ECC training tailored by a low rate of perceived exertion (RPE) an…
Clinical effectiveness and safety of a distraction-rotation knee brace for medial knee osteoarthritis
Abstract Objective Evaluation of the clinical effectiveness and safety of a new custom-made valgus knee brace (OdrA) in medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) in terms of pain and secondary symptoms. Methods Open-label prospective study of patients with symptomatic medial knee OA with clinical evaluation at 6 and 52 weeks (W6, W52). We systematically assessed pain on a visual analog scale (VAS), Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), spatio-temporal gait variables, use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and analgesic-sparing effects of the brace and tolerance. Mean scores were compared at baseline, W6 and W52 and the effect size (ES) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI…

Effects of long-term lifestyle and high-intensity interval training intervention on blood pressure reduction in patients with abdominal obesity
Purpose: The aims of this study were: 1) to study the impact of a combined long-term lifestyle and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) intervention on blood pressure (BP) in patients with abdominal obesity; 2) To document BP reduction responses according to the European Society of Hypertension BP classification. Methods: 105 patients with abdominal obesity (age: 53±10 yrs; 32 men; waist circumference (WC): 112±13cm; systolic/diastolic (SBP/DBP): 133±13/82±8 mmHg; 11% diabetics, 11% smokers, 68% with antihypertensive therapy) were retrospectively analyzed before and after a combined long-term lifestyle and HIIT program twice a week. Anthropometric measurements, cardiometabolic risk facto…
