Purpose : Study to find out the exercise effect on function increase per field is at a very lacking status although pulmonary function is included in various fields. Therefore, this thesis was to find out the influence the aerobic exercise and muscular endurance exercise has on pulmonary function fields.
Methods : Target of study were 28(13 exercise group, 15 comparison group) female elderly who are using the K senior citizen center located at Busan city. Exercise program of this study was 8 week exercise program formed by aerobic exercise including stretching and dance routine and the muscular endurance exercise using the Thera-Band bandage. Considering that the targets who participated in the exercise were elder, all the exercise was implemented at the sitting position. For pulmonary function measurement, digital pulmonary function measuring instrument(Pony FX, COSMED Inc, Italy) was used and the measurement item was maximum-effort expiratory spirogram(MES).
Results : There was bit of decrease in the Forced Vital Capacity, Forced Expiratory volume in one second, Maximum Expiratory Flow 50% among the item of pulmonary function of exercise group and increased in the Forced Expiratory volume in one second/Forced Vital Capacity(%), Maximum Expiratory Flow 75%, but there was no statistical difference. On the other hand there was significant increase(p<.05) in Maximum Expiratory Flow 25%. All the items showed decrease in the comparison group and especially there was significant decrease in the Forced Expiratory volume in one second/Forced Vital Capacity(%)(p<.05) and Maximum Expiratory Flow 25%(p<.05). Looking at the change aspect of the two sections, the experimental group showed increase in the Forced Expiratory volume in one second/Forced Vital Capacity(%)(p<.05) and Maximum Expiratory Flow 25%(p<.05) while comparison group decreased showing difference in the change aspect.
Conclusion : Looking at the study result, it shows tendency of decreasing overall the item related with pulmonary function when not implementing exercise but it could be seen that decrease level is small or even increases when exercising. Therefore, it could be confirmed that aerobic exercise and muscular endurance exercise had positive possibility on the pulmonary function of the elderly.
