Nurse Managed Upper Body Strength Training in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Nurse Managed Upper Body Strength Training in COPD

This is a four month exercise training program for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)with a 12 month follow-up.

Visão geral do estudo

Descrição detalhada

People with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) experience intense symptoms of dyspnea when they use their arms and shoulders. To control dyspnea they avoid using their arms and ultimately experience a significant loss of upper body (UB) strength and a decrease in the level of physical activity. Some pulmonary rehabilitation programs include strength training, but the training intensity is typically very low. The purpose of this research is to examine the effects of UB strength training (designed to maximize strength gains) with a self-confidence intervention to enhance adherence to exercise. This is an experimental study with random assignment of subjects to one experimental and two control groups: (a) UB strength training and self-efficacy intervention for adherence (experimental), (b) UB strength training with health education (control 1) and (c) gentle armchair fitness exercises with health education (control 2). Each subject will be studied for a total of 16 months.The intervention period is four months in duration with a 12-month follow-up period. The sample will be people with moderate to severe COPD who experience dyspnea with UB activities. This research is innovative in that it examines the effects of upper body strength training designed to maximize strength gains and combines it with a theory-based self-efficacy (confidence-building) intervention to promote adherence to training in people with COPD.

Intervenção / Tratamento
Experimental: Upper Body Strength Training with Self-Efficacy
16 weeks of upper body strength training combined with an exercise-specific self-efficacy enhancing intervention
Subjects in the experimental group will participate in a self-efficacy enhancing intervention designed to maximize (a) exercise-specific SE-UB strength training (b) self-efficacy for overcoming barriers to exercise and (c) SE-UB physical activities. The intervention incorporates strategies to maximize the primary sources of efficacy information: (a) mastery accomplishments, (b) social modeling, (c) social persuasion, (d) interpretation of physiological and affective symptoms.
16 weeks of lab-based upper body strength training using 8: modified lateral pull down, shoulder shrug, upright row, overhead pull down, front raise, front pull down, triceps extension, biceps curl. Training load and volume will be increased progressing from 70% to 80% of the maximum strength training and from 2 sets of 8-10 repetitions progressing to 3 sets. Each week subjects will train twice in the lab and once at home. Home exercises will include 1 set of 15-20 repetitions: biceps curl, triceps extension, front raises, lateral raises, overhead press, chest press and one-arm dumbbell row.
Comparador Ativo: Upper body strength training
16 weeks of upper body strength training with weekly health education sessions
16 weeks of lab-based upper body strength training using 8: modified lateral pull down, shoulder shrug, upright row, overhead pull down, front raise, front pull down, triceps extension, biceps curl. Training load and volume will be increased progressing from 70% to 80% of the maximum strength training and from 2 sets of 8-10 repetitions progressing to 3 sets. Each week subjects will train twice in the lab and once at home. Home exercises will include 1 set of 15-20 repetitions: biceps curl, triceps extension, front raises, lateral raises, overhead press, chest press and one-arm dumbbell row.
Comparador Falso: Chair exercise
16 wks of gentle chair exercise with weekly health education
Gentle armchair fitness exercises will be used as a sham treatment to control for the attention that subjects receive in the two strength training groups. The armchair fitness exercises will be conducted in small groups (n=8-10 per group). Armchair exercises will include stretching of all major joints with an emphasis on the arms and shoulders, massage of muscles that can be reached from the armchair (scalp, neck, shoulders, lower back, abdomen and thighs) and imagery to promote relaxation. Each session will include: 5 minutes of slow stretching, 20 minutes of faster paced exercises, 5 minutes of slower paced stretches, followed by 5-10 minutes of massage and imagery for relaxation.
