Objective To investigate the effect of a supervised upper limb (UL) program (SULP) compared to no supervised UL program (NULP) after lung transplantation (LTx). Design Randomized controlled trial. Setting Physiotherapy gym. Participants Participants (N=80; mean age, 56+11y; 37 [46%] men) were recruited after LTx. Interventions All participants underwent lower limb strength thrice weekly and endurance training. Participants randomized to SULP completed progressive UL strength training program using handheld weights and adjustable pulley equipment. Main Outcome Measures Overall bodily pain was rated on the visual analog scale. Shoulder flexion and abduction muscle strength were measured on a hand held dynamometer. Health related quality of life was measured with Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short Form health Survey and the Quick Dash. Measurements were made at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months by blinded assessors. Results After 6 weeks of training, participants in the SULP (n=41) had less overall bodily pain on the visual analog scale than did participants in the NULP (n=36) (mean VAS bodily pain score, 2.1+1.3cm vs 3.8+1.7cm; P<.001 as well greater ul strength than did participants in the nulp peak force vs p=".037)." at weeks sulp better quality of life related to bodily pain but months there were no differences between groups any outcome measures. serious adverse events reported.> Conclusions UL rehabilitation results in short-term improvements in pain and muscle strength after LTx, but no longer-term effects were evident. |
