Respir Med 2024; 227:107657. [PMID: 38718907 DOI: 10.1016/j.rmed.2024.107657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (fILD) is characterised primarily by impaired lung function and quality of life. The present study investigated whether oxygen therapy could improve exercise capacity among patients with fILD. METHODS Previously published randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were surveyed. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of oxygen therapy in improving the exertional capacity of patients with fILD. The primary outcome was peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) during exercise. The effects of oxygen therapy on fatigue, dyspnoea, heart rate, and exercise duration or distance were also analysed. RESULTS Fourteen RCTs involving 370 patients were included. Oxygen therapy improved SpO2 during exercise (mean difference, MD = 6.26 %), exercise duration (MD = 122.15 s), fatigue (standard mean difference, SMD = -0.30), and dyspnoea (MD = -0.75 Borg score units). High-flow oxygen systems tended to be more effective than low-flow systems in improving exercising SpO2, duration, fatigue, dyspnoea, and heart rate. High-flow nasal cannulas (HFNCs) yielded better outcomes regarding SpO2 and fatigue than did high-flow Venturi masks (MD = 1.60 % and MD = -1.19 Borg score units, respectively). No major adverse events were reported. CONCLUSION The evidence from RCTs supports the short-term use of oxygen supplementation to improve SpO2, exercise capacity, fatigue, and dyspnoea among patients with fILD. Further analyses demonstrates that HFNCs yield more favourable outcomes, yet not reaching statistical significance except for improving SpO2 and fatigue. However, the long-term effects of oxygen therapy on quality of life and mortality remain unclear.

Abstract
Respiratory symptoms are ubiquitous and impair health-related quality of life in people with respiratory disease. This European Respiratory Society (ERS) task force aimed to provide recommendations for symptomatic treatment in people with serious respiratory illness. The ERS task force comprised 16 members, including representatives of people with serious respiratory illness and informal caregivers. Seven questions were formulated, six in the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) format, which were addressed with full systematic reviews and evidence assessed using GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation). One question was addressed narratively. An "evidence-to-decision" framework was used to formulate recommendations. To treat symptoms in people with serious respiratory illness, the task force suggests the use of graded exercise therapy (conditional recommendation, low certainty of evidence); and suggests the use of a multicomponent services, handheld fan and breathing techniques (conditional recommendations, very low certainty of evidence). The task force suggests not to use opioids (conditional recommendation, very low certainty of evidence); and suggests either administering or not administering supplemental oxygen therapy (conditional recommendation, low certainty of evidence). The task force suggests that needs assessment tools may be used as part of a comprehensive needs assessment, but do not replace patient-centred care and shared decision making (conditional recommendation, low certainty of evidence). The low certainty of evidence, modest impact of interventions on patient-centred outcomes, and absence of effective strategies to ameliorate cough highlight the need for new approaches to reduce symptoms and enhance wellbeing for individuals who live with serious respiratory illness.

Abstract
Rationale: Hypoxemia in fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD) indicates disease progression and is of prognostic significance. The onset of hypoxemia signifies disease progression and predicts mortality in fibrotic ILD. Accurately predicting new-onset exertional and resting hypoxemia prompts appropriate patient discussion and timely consideration of home oxygen. Objectives: We derived and externally validated a risk prediction tool for both new-onset exertional and new-onset resting hypoxemia. Methods: This study used ILD registries from Canada for the derivation cohort and from Australia and the United States for the validation cohort. New-onset exertional and resting hypoxemia were defined as nadir oxyhemoglobin saturation < 88% during 6-minute-walk tests, resting oxyhemoglobin saturation < 88%, or the initiation of ambulatory or continuous oxygen. Candidate predictors included patient demographics, ILD subtypes, and pulmonary function. Time-varying Cox regression was used to identify the top-performing prediction model according to Akaike information criterion and clinical usability. Model performance was assessed using Harrell's C-index and goodness-of-fit (GoF) likelihood ratio test. A categorized risk prediction tool was developed. Results: The best-performing prediction model for both new-onset exertional and new-onset resting hypoxemia included age, body mass index, a diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and percent predicted forced vital capacity and diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide. The risk prediction tool exhibited good performance for exertional hypoxemia (C-index, 0.70; GoF, P = 0.85) and resting hypoxemia (C-index, 0.77; GoF, P = 0.27) in the derivation cohort, with similar performance in the validation cohort except calibration for resting hypoxemia (GoF, P = 0.001). Conclusions: This clinically applicable risk prediction tool predicted new-onset exertional and resting hypoxemia at 6 months in the derivation cohort and a diverse validation cohort. Suboptimal GoF in the validation cohort likely reflected overestimation of hypoxemia risk and indicated that the model is not flawed because of underestimation of hypoxemia.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cerebral hypoxia may exacerbate the perception of fatigue. We previously demonstrated that exercise-related hypoxemia, a hallmark of fibrotic interstitial lung disease ( f -ILD), dose dependently impairs cerebral oxygenation in these patients. It is unknown whether normalizing cerebral oxygenation with O 2 supplementation would be associated with positive changes in a relevant patient-centered outcome during exercise in f -ILD, such as improved perceived fatigue. METHODS Fourteen patients (12 males, 72 ± 8 yr, 8 with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide = 44% ± 13% predicted) performed a constant-load (60% peak work rate) cycle test to symptom limitation (Tlim) breathing medical air. Fourteen controls cycled up to Tlim of an age- and sex-matched patient. Patients repeated the test on supplemental O 2 (fraction of inspired O 2 = 0.41 ± 0.08) for the same duration. Near-infrared spectroscopy and the rating-of-fatigue (ROF) scale assessed prefrontal cortex oxygenation and perceived fatigue, respectively. RESULTS Patients showed severe exertional hypoxemia (Tlim O 2 saturation by pulse oximetry = 80% ± 8%); they had poorer cerebral oxygenation (e.g., oxy-deoxyhemoglobin difference [HbDiff] = -3.5 ± 4.7 [range = -17.6 to +1.9] vs +1.9 ± 1.7 μmol from rest) and greater fatigue (ROF = 6.2 ± 2.0 vs 2.6 ± 2.3) versus controls under air ( P < 0.001). Reversal of exertional hypoxemia with supplemental O 2 led to improved HbDiff (+1.7 ± 2.4 μmol from rest; no longer differing from controls) and lower ROF scores (3.7 ± 1.2, P < 0.001 vs air) in patients. There was a significant correlation between O 2 -induced changes in HbDiff and ROF scores throughout exercise in f -ILD ( rrepeated-measures correlation = -0.51, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Supplemental O 2 improved cerebral oxygenation during exercise in f -ILD, which was moderately associated with lower ratings of perceived fatigue. Reversing cerebral hypoxia with O 2 supplementation may thus have positive effects on patients' disablement beyond those expected from lower ventilation and dyspnea in this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment and exercise intolerance are common in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Cerebral perfusion and oxygenation play a major role in both cognitive function and exercise execution. This study aimed to examine cerebral oxygenation during a mild physical stress in patients at different CKD stages and controls without CKD. METHODS Ninety participants (18 per CKD stage 2, 3a, 3b and 4 and 18 controls) underwent a 3-min intermittent handgrip exercise at 35% of their maximal voluntary contraction. During exercise, cerebral oxygenation [oxyhaemoglobin (O2Hb), deoxyhaemoglobin (HHb) and total haemoglobin (tHb)] was assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy. Indices of microvascular (muscle hyperaemic response) and macrovascular function (carotid intima-media thickness and pulse wave velocity (PWV)) and cognitive and physical activity status were also evaluated. RESULTS No differences in age, sex and body mass index were detected among groups. The mini-mental state examination score was significantly reduced with advancing CKD stages (controls: 29.2 ± 1.2, stage 2: 28.7 ± 1.0, stage 3a: 27.8 ± 1.9, stage 3b: 28.0 ± 1.8, stage 4: 27.6 ± 1.5; P = .019). Similar trends were observed for physical activity levels and handgrip strength. The average response in cerebral oxygenation (O2Hb) during exercise was lower with advancing CKD stages (controls: 2.50 ± 1.54, stage 2: 1.30 ± 1.05, stage 3a: 1.24 ± 0.93, stage 3b: 1.11 ± 0.89, stage 4: 0.97 ± 0.80 μmol/l; P < .001). The average tHb response (index of regional blood volume) showed a similar decreasing trend (P = .003); no differences in HHb among groups were detected. In univariate linear analysis, older age, lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), Hb, microvascular hyperaemic response and increased PWV were associated with poor O2Hb response during exercise. In the multiple model, eGFR was the only parameter independently associated with the O2Hb response. CONCLUSIONS Brain activation during a mild physical task appears to decrease with advancing CKD as suggested by the smaller increase in cerebral oxygenation. This may contribute to impaired cognitive function and reduced exercise tolerance with advancing CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), decreased oxygen saturation (SpO2) reduces physical performance and causes exertional dyspnea. Portable oxygen concentrator (POC) and pursed-lip breathing (PLB) have the potential to improve these parameters in ILD patients. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of PLB while using a POC during walking in ILD patients. DESIGN Prospective, randomized crossover trial. METHODS We compared two breathing techniques. Participants not trained in PLB received a familiarization session before the first 6-min walking test (6MWT). During the first visit, patients performed the 6MWT under natural breathing (NB1) without oxygen (O2); during the second visit, they performed the 6MWT twice, once each with PLB (PLB1) and natural breathing (NB2) under O2 supplementation, to compare the effectiveness of NB and PLB. RESULTS Twenty participants were recruited; half had exercise-induced desaturation (EID) and half normal SpO2. In the normoxemia group (NG), the difference in the 6-min walking distance (6MWD) between NB1 and PLB1 was 28.8 ± 24.0 m, indicating reduced exercise capacity in PLB1. There were no significant differences in the quadriceps tissue saturation index (TSI), SpO2, and 6MWD between the PLB1 and NB2 in any patient or subgroup. All participants showed a significant increase in the SpO2 at rest, nadir SpO2, and mean SpO2 during the 6MWT with PLB and NB2 using a POC than with NB1. TSI showed a significant improvement at the beginning of 6MWT in ILD patients with EID in the PLB and NB2 condition. CONCLUSION Acute exposure to PLB did not improve symptoms, muscle oxygenation, or SpO2; however, it decreased the walking distance in the normoxemia group. POC improved leg muscle oxygenation in ILD patients with EID. The use of PLB and POC should be prescribed according to disease characteristics and severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoxaemia and cardiocirculatory abnormalities may impair muscle oxygen (O2 ) delivery relative to O2 requirements thereby increasing the rate of O2 extraction during incremental exercise in fibrotic interstitial lung disease (f-ILD). Using changes in deoxyhaemoglobin concentration ([HHb]) by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) as a proxy of O2 extraction, we investigated whether a simplified (double-linear) approach, previously tested in heart failure, would provide useful estimates of muscle deoxygenation in f-ILD. METHODS A total of 25 patients (23 men, 72 ± 8 years; 20 with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide = 44 ± 11% predicted) and 12 age- and sex-matched healthy controls performed incremental cycling to symptom limitation. Changes in vastus lateralis [HHb] assessed by NIRS were analysed in relation to work rate (WR) and O2 uptake throughout the exercise. RESULTS Patients showed lower exercise capacity than controls (e.g., peak WR = 67 ± 18% vs. 105 ± 20% predicted, respectively; p < 0.001). The [HHb] response profile was typically S-shaped, presenting three distinct phases. Exacerbated muscle deoxygenation in patients versus controls was evidenced by: (i) a steeper mid-exercise [HHb]-WR slope (0.30 ± 0.22 vs. 0.11 ± 0.08 μmol/W; p = 0.008) (Phase 2), and (ii) a larger late-exercise increase in [HHb] (p = 0.002) (Phase 3). Steeper [HHb]-WR slope was associated with lower peak WR (r = -0.70) and greater leg discomfort (r = 0.77; p < 0.001) in f-ILD. CONCLUSION This practical approach to interpreting [HHb] during incremental exercise might prove useful to determine the severity of muscle deoxygenation and the potential effects of interventions thereof in hypoxemic patients with f-ILD.

Abstract
Some chronic respiratory diseases can cause hypoxemia and, in such cases, long-term home oxygen therapy (LTOT) is indicated as a treatment option primarily to improve patient quality of life and life expectancy. Home oxygen has been used for more than 70 years, and support for LTOT is based on two studies from the 1980s that demonstrated that oxygen use improves survival in patients with COPD. There is evidence that LTOT has other beneficial effects such as improved cognitive function, improved exercise capacity, and reduced hospitalizations. LTOT is indicated in other respiratory diseases that cause hypoxemia, on the basis of the same criteria as those used for COPD. There has been an increase in the use of LTOT, probably because of increased life expectancy and a higher prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases, as well as greater availability of LTOT in the health care system. The first Brazilian Thoracic Association consensus statement on LTOT was published in 2000. Twenty-two years la-ter, we present this updated version. This document is a nonsystematic review of the literature, conducted by pulmonologists who evaluated scientific evidence and international guidelines on LTOT in the various diseases that cause hypoxemia and in specific situations (i.e., exercise, sleep, and air travel). These recommendations, produced with a view to clinical practice, contain several charts with information on indications for LTOT, oxygen sources, accessories, strategies for improved efficiency and effectiveness, and recommendations for the safe use of LTOT, as well as a LTOT prescribing model.

Exercise-Based Pulmonary Rehabilitation for Interstitial Lung Diseases: A Review of Components, Prescription, Efficacy, and Safety. FRONTIERS IN REHABILITATION SCIENCES 2021; 2:744102.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders (such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, sarcoidosis, asbestosis, and pneumonitis) characterized by lung parenchymal impairment, inflammation, and fibrosis. The shortness of breath (i.e., dyspnea) is a hallmark and disabling symptom of ILDs. Patients with ILDs may also exhibit skeletal muscle dysfunction, oxygen desaturation, abnormal respiratory patterns, pulmonary hypertension, and decreased cardiac function, contributing to exercise intolerance and limitation of day-to-day activities. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) including physical exercise is an evidence-based approach to benefit functional capacity, dyspnea, and quality of life in ILD patients. However, despite recent advances and similarities with other lung diseases, the field of PR for patients with ILD requires further evidence. This mini-review aims to explore the exercise-based PR delivered around the world and evidence supporting prescription modes, considering type, intensity, and frequency components, as well as efficacy and safety of exercise training in ILDs. This review will be able to strengthen the rationale for exercise training recommendations as a core component of the PR for ILD patients.

Effects of oxygen supplementation in autonomic nervous system function during exercise in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and exertional desaturation. CLINICAL RESPIRATORY JOURNAL 2021; 15:1088-1096. [PMID: 34143559 DOI: 10.1111/crj.13412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2021] [Revised: 06/05/2021] [Accepted: 06/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have reduced exercise capacity and often present exertional dyspnea and desaturation. The role of autonomic nervous system (ANS) as a pathogenetic contributor to this dysfunction has not been evaluated. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether improvement of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2 ) via oxygen supplementation results to ANS function improvement, during steady state submaximal exercise. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of a single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial, including 12 IPF patients, with isolated exertional desaturation. Following a maximal cardiopulmonary test, participants underwent two submaximal steady state tests during which they received either supplementary oxygen or medical air. Continuous beat-to-beat blood pressure measurements were recorded (Finapres Medical Systems, Amsterdam, The Netherlands). Autonomic function was assessed non-invasively by heart rate variability (HRV); root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD) and standard-deviation-Poincare-plot (SD1) were used as indices of parasympathetic output. Entropy and detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) were also used. RESULTS During rest, oxygen supplementation did not significantly alter RMSSD and SD1. During exercise, subjects presented no significant alterations compared with baseline, in most HRV indices examined. There was no improvement of this behavior with O2 -supplementation. Approximate-entropy increased during exercise, with no differences between protocols. CONCLUSIONS IPF patients presented an inadequate adaptive response of their ANS to exercise and recovery. Although oxygen supplementation significantly prolonged exercise duration and prevented the substantial exertional desaturation, the blunted vagal response to steady-state exercise in these patients was not improved, suggesting that acute oxygen supplementation does not sufficiently improve ANS dysfunction in these patients.
