exercise 16 human reflex physiology: Routledge Handbook of Ergonomics in Sport and Exercise Youlian Hong, 2013-12-04 Ergonomics is concerned with the ‘fit’ between people and their work. With an increasing number of people becoming conscious about their health and participating in sport or physical activity, ergonomics has become an increasingly prominent concern within the sport and exercise sciences. From the design of footwear and artificial playing surfaces, to studies of proprioception by obese children , the way in which people interact with their environment - designed and natural – has important implications for performance sport and for the design of safe and beneficial forms of physical activity. The Routledge Handbook of Ergonomics in Sport and Exercise is the first book to offer a comprehensive and in-depth survey of cutting-edge scientific research into ergonomics in sport and exercise. Written by world-leading international scientists and researchers, the book explores key topics such as: Musculoskeletal adaptation to sports and exercise Environmental factors of injury and fatigue Load weight and performance Ergonomics in adapted sports and exercise Measurement in sports and exercise Modeling and simulation in ergonomics design Influence of playing surface, footwear and equipment design Bridging the gap between fundamental scientific research in sport and exercise and applications in sport and exercise contexts, this is an important reference for all advanced students, researchers and professionals working in sport and exercise science, kinesiology, sports technology, sports engineering, ergonomics, and product design. |

exercise 16 human reflex physiology: Human Cardiovascular Control Loring B. Rowell, 1993 This new analysis of reflex and hormonal control of the human cardiovascular system developed from questions raised in Human Circulation: During Physical Stress (Rowell, 1986) and from recent findings. The goal is to help students, physiologists and clinicians understand the control of pressure, vascular volume, and blood flow by examining the cardiovascular system during orthostasis and exercise, two stresses that most affect these variables. A discussion of the passive physical properties of the vascular system provides a basis for explaining how vascular control is modified by mechanical, neural, and humoral factors. Interactive effects of the vasculature on cardiac performance are emphasized; they reveal the importance of autonomic control, supplemented by muscle pumping, in maintaining adequate ventricular filling pressure. The author's detailed analysis of how total oxygen consumption is restricted focuses on limitations in cardiac pumping ability, oxygen diffusion from lungs to blood and from blood to active muscle, oxidative metabolism and neural control of organ blood flow. An unsolved mystery is the nature of the signals that govern the cardiovascular responses to exercise. This is discussed in a new and critical synthesis of ideas and evidence concerning the error signals that are sensed and then corrected by activation of the autonomic nervous system during exercise. |
exercise 16 human reflex physiology: Exercise training and testing in patients with heart failure Charlotta Lans, 2020-12-15 Patients with heart failure (HF) suffer from symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue and reduced quality of life, which affect their physical function and often lead to immobilization and poor survival prognosis. Exercise training in cardiac rehabilitation should be offered to every patient with HF and can be performed both in a hospital-setting and with a home training programme. Exercise, in patients with HF, improves physical function and functional capacity as well as health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and reduces the need for hospital care. There are several barriers against participating in exercise based cardiac rehabilitation despite information about its benefits. The patient may anticipate not being able to exercise, that the exercise would be too hard, lives far away or has not been referred. Aim: The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effects of exercise in heart failure patients, of a one-year training programme, with hospital-based training followed by a home-based setting or only home-based, with special emphasis on peripheral muscle training (PMT). Furthermore, to study frequently used methods for evaluation of the effects, i.e the 6-minute walk test and instruments for estimating health-related quality of life. Methods and findings: In study I, PMT was evaluated and the PMT programme in a hospital-setting (with equipment) and subsequent homebased training (with elastic bands) was compared with solely home-based training, over 1 year. At follow-up every third month, duplicated six minute walk test (6MWT) and two HRQoL questionnaires were used. The walking distance increased significantly after three months in both groups and was maintained thereafter. Also HRQoL increased but at different time points. In study II, PMT was compared with interval training on an ergometer bike/free walking. Both groups started under supervision of a physiotherapist in a hospital-setting, for three months and thereafter at home for nine months. The same measurements were used as in study I. Neither walking distance nor HRQoL changed over the study period. However, this may be regarded as a positive effect in the light of the known progressive nature of heart failure. In study III, the 6MWTs from study I and II were used to evaluate the necessity of performing duplicated 6MWTs in follow-ups clinically and for research purposes. We found that it is sufficient to perform one 6MWT. In study IV, both 6MWT and HRQoL forms from study I and II were used to investigate the relationship between walking distance and perceived HRQoL in HF patients. Patients with shorter walking distance, than the group median, experienced poorer general HRQoL but not HRQoL related to HF, than the higher performing half of the study group. There were no longitudinal trends in these relationships. Conclusion: PMT can be used as an exercise modality in patients with HF, both in hospital and at home, and may be evaluated with a single 6MWT. Shorter walking distance was related to a lower general HRQoL as judged by the patients but there was no significant relation between short walking distance and the HF-related HRQoL. Individualizing the training programme and methods, and offering the choice of exercise modality and the possibility of exercising at home, might be a way to increase adherence in cardiac rehabilitation. Patienter med hjärtsvikt besväras av andfåddhet och trötthet vilket påverkar deras fysiska funktion och ofta leder till immobilisering, nedsatt livskvalitet och dålig prognos. Träning inom hjärtrehabilitering bör erbjudas alla patienter med hjärtsvikt och kan utföras såväl på sjukhus som hemma med hemträningsprogram. Träning vid hjärtsvikt förbättrar fysisk funktion och funktionell kapacitet, hälsorelaterad livskvalitet, och minskar behovet av vård på sjukhus. Det finns många barriärer till att delta i hjärtrehabilitering trots information om vinster, t ex att patienten tror sig inte klara av att träna, bor långt ifrån, har inte fått remiss för att nämna några. Syfte: Syftet med avhandlingen var att utvärdera effekterna av ett träningsprogram för patienter med hjärtsvikt under 1 år, träning på sjukhus följt av hemträning eller enbart hemträning. Ett specifikt syfte var att utvärdera perifer muskelträning (PMT) som en möjlig, lämplig träningsmetod för hjärtsviktspatienter. Vidare var syftet att utvärdera effekten av sex minuters gångtest och hälsorelaterad livskvalitet. Metod och resultat: I studie I utvärderades PMT och jämförde träning på sjukhus (med redskap) med efterföljande hemträning (med elastiska band) med enbart hemträning under 1 år. Vid utvärdering var tredje månad användes dubbla sex minuters gångtest och frågeformulär om livskvalitet. Gångsträckan ökade signifikant efter träning och höll i sig hela träningsperioden i båda grupperna. Även livskvaliteten ökade men vid olika tidpunkter. I studie II, jämfördes PMT med intervallträning på ergometercykel/promenader. Båda grupperna tränade under ledning av fysioterapeut i tre månader och därefter hemma upp till 1 år. Samma utvärdering som i studie I. Gångsträcka och livskvaliteten ändrade sig inte under studietiden. Det kan dock ses som en positiv effekt eftersom hjärtsviktspatienter vanligen försämras över tid. I studie III, användes gångtesten från studie I och II för att utvärdera om det är nödvändighet att utföra dubbla sex minuters gångtest vid utvärdering. Ingen kliniskt betydelsefull skillnad sågs mellan gångtest ett och två. I studie IV, användes både gångtest och livskvalitetsformulär, från studie I och II, för att undersöka samband mellan gångsträcka och upplevd livskvalitet och om detta samband ändrades med tiden. Patienter med kortare gångsträcka upplevde sämre allmän hälsorelaterad livskvalitet men inte livskvalitet relaterad till hjärtsvikten, någon kliniskt signifikant förändring över tid kunde inte påvisas. Konklusion: Perifer muskelträning kan användas som en säker träningsform för patienter med hjärtsvikt, både på sjukhus och som hemträning och kan utvärderas med endast ett sex minuters gångtest. Patienter med kortare gångsträcka upplever sämre allmän livskvalitet vilket förefaller relativt oberoende av de olika testtidpunkterna. |

exercise 16 human reflex physiology: The Breathless Heart Michele Emdin, Alberto Giannoni, Claudio Passino, 2016-11-25 This book systematically focuses on central sleep apneas, analyzing their relationship especially with heart failure and discussing recent research results and emerging treatment strategies based on feedback modulation. The opening chapters present historical background information on Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR), clarify terminology, and explain the mechanics and chemistry of respiration. Following a description of the physiology of respiration, the pathophysiology underlying central apneas in different disorders and particularly in heart failure is discussed. The similarities and differences of obstructive and central apneas are then considered. The book looks beyond the concept of sleep apnea to daytime CSR and periodic breathing during effort and contrasts the opposing views of CSR as a compensatory phenomenon or as detrimental to the failing heart. The diagnostic tools currently in use for the detection of CSR are thoroughly reviewed, with guidance on interpretation of findings. The book concludes by describing the various forms of treatment that are available for CSR and by explaining how to select patients for treatment. |
