Risk Factors and Manifestations. Risk Factors to COPD Smoking (tobacco, cigarettes, e-smoking) Chronic Lung Infections Asthma Manifestations Chronic Cough Wheezing Phlegm Frequent Respiratory Infections.

Pathophysiology. COPD may due to alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency or environmental (smoking) induction of neutrophil recruitment to bronchioles and alveoli. Neutrophil recruitment in lungs leads to exacerbated inflammation response which leads to elastin degradation and increased oxidative stress. Elastic Degraded and Oxidative Stress then lead to destruction of alveolar walls.

COPD & EXERCISE. Exercise Efforts are done to alleviate shortness of breath and dyspnea , and improving muscle strength, which often comes from sedentary living in those with COPD Resistance Training in Upper Limbs improved exercise capacity and respiratory muscle strength Respiratory Muscle Stretching combined with Aerobic exercise found to increase efficacy of respiratory muscles and decrease dyspnea.

COPD & EXERCISE II. Aerobic Exercise and High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) improve functional capacity (lung function) Endurance and Lower Limb Resistance Training improved symptom burden (dyspnea, muscle weakness, exercise capacity) Inspiratory Muscle Training (strengthening diaphragm) relieves COPD symptoms.

[Audio] Exercise and Spirometry Test are used to measure the severity of COPD in patients. Severity, graded using the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease group classification..

SUMMARY. Leading cause of COPD is smoking Symptoms of COPD are the manifestations of the destruction of alveoli and bronchioles COPD is incurable; Treatment in catered to delay progression of disease and improve quality of life Exercise focused on increasing lung function alleviate COPD Symptoms We Recommend Aerobic Exercise combined with Aerobic Endurance Training.

COPD stands for Chronic Obstructive Persistent Disease.

True or False Questions ! Answers. COPD stands for Chronic Obstructive Persistent Disease (FALSE) COPD is a cured by prescribing Bronchodilators and Antimuscarinic drugs immediately after diagnosis (FALSE) Upper Limb Resistance Training has been found to improve respiratory muscle strength? (TRUE).
