Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (n=10), Interstitial Lung Disease (n=10)

Whole body vibration, cardiorespiratory response
Brief summary
Whole body vibration training seems to be a useful adjunct in exercise training in patients with severe COPD. The basic principle relies on reflectory muscle contractions caused by a vibration stimulus. Until now the impact of whole body vibration training on cardiopulmonary parameters remained unknown. Therefore aim of this study is to investigate cardiopulmonary parameters during whole body vibration training in patients with chronic lung disease.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| minute ventilation (VE) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
| perceived exertion for dyspnea and leg fatigue (Borg-scale) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
| heart rate (HR) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
| breathing frequency (BF) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
| peak carbon-dioxide consumption (VCO2 peak) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
| Alveolar-arterial oxygen difference (AaDO2) | during 1 exercise session | subjects perform several short bouts (1 to 3 minutes duration) of squatting exercise with or without whole body vibration. The peak values of each single part is used for comparison. |
