Abstract

Stroke is a significant cause of mortality and chronic morbidity caused by cardiovascular disease. Respiratory muscles can be affected in stroke survivors, leading to stroke complications, such as respiratory infections. Respiratory function can be assessed using pulmonary function tests (PFTs). Data regarding PFTs in stroke survivors are limited. We reviewed the correlation between PFTs and stroke severity or degree of disability. Furthermore, we reviewed the PFT change in stroke patients undergoing a respiratory muscle training program. We searched PubMed until September 2023 using inclusion and exclusion criteria in order to identify studies reporting PFTs post-stroke and their change after a respiratory muscle training program. Outcomes included lung function parameters (FEV1, FVC, PEF, MIP and MEP) were measured in acute or chronic stroke survivors. We identified 22 studies of stroke patients, who had undergone PFTs and 24 randomised controlled trials in stroke patients having PFTs after respiratory muscle training. The number of patients included was limited and studies were characterised by great heterogeneity regarding the studied population and the applied intervention. In general, PFTs were significantly reduced compared to healthy controls and predicted normal values and associated with stroke severity. Furthermore, we found that respiratory muscle training was associated with significant improvement in various PFT parameters and functional stroke parameters. PFTs are associated with stroke severity and are improved after respiratory muscle training.

中风后肺功能测试。肺功能、中风严重程度与呼吸肌训练后改善之间的相关性。
中风是心血管疾病导致死亡和慢性发病的重要原因。中风幸存者的呼吸肌会受到影响,导致中风并发症,如呼吸道感染。呼吸功能可通过肺功能检查(PFT)进行评估。有关中风幸存者肺功能检查的数据有限。我们回顾了 PFT 与中风严重程度或残疾程度之间的相关性。此外,我们还回顾了接受呼吸肌训练计划的中风患者的 PFT 变化。我们在 2023 年 9 月之前使用纳入和排除标准对 PubMed 进行了检索,以确定报道中风后 PFT 及其在呼吸肌训练计划后变化的研究。研究结果包括急性或慢性中风幸存者的肺功能参数(FEV1、FVC、PEF、MIP 和 MEP)。我们确定了 22 项针对接受过肺功能检查的中风患者的研究,以及 24 项针对接受呼吸肌训练后进行肺功能检查的中风患者的随机对照试验。纳入的患者人数有限,而且研究对象和应用的干预措施存在很大的异质性。一般来说,与健康对照组和预测正常值相比,PFTs 明显下降,且与中风严重程度相关。此外,我们还发现呼吸肌训练与各种 PFT 参数和中风功能参数的显著改善有关。PFTs与中风严重程度相关,呼吸肌训练后可改善PFTs。
