Pulmonary rehabilitation for chronic respiratory disease and post ITU care provides our state of the art care using the best available evidence to improve exercise tolerance, muscle strength and lung volume. Our initial assessment covers, aerobic fitness test, assessing for VO2 Max, MHR/THR, 6MWT and assessing for diaphragm muscle strength using MIP/MEP and upper limb strength using 1RM, 10RM and Sit To Stand Test (STS) for lower limb strength. Treatment involve, aerobic and endurance training targeting THR, also resistance exercise to improve upper limb, core stability, and lower limb muscle strength. Treatment is adapted to the individual and chronic respiratory condition and post ITU rehabilitation.
