Abstract

|
|
Purpose: In this case study, we aimed to examine the effects of low-flow nasal oxygen therapy during a low-intensity exercise intervention on the gait improvement of a patient with thoracic vertebral fracture and respiratory disease.
Methods: An old patient with thoracic vertebral fracture and respiratory disease received low-flow nasal oxygen therapy during low-intensity (Borg scale, 3?4) exercises (e.g., tilting table, walker standing, and walker gait) for 4 weeks.
Results : We found that the patient could breathe on her own in room air during independent gait with a walker.
Conclusion : Low-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy during a low-intensity exercise intervention improved general weakness and strengthened respiratory muscles as well as shortened the period of oxygen therapy.
