简介
Background
Lemgruber® elastic tubing has been used as an adjunct to exercise training with positive effects in healthy adults and in patients with chronic lung disease. Despite its benefits, there is a lack of information on the specific resistance, elongation, reproducibility and safety of the different types of Lemgruber® elastic tubing.
Objectives
The primary outcome was to assess the length-resistance relation (E/R) of five Lemgruber® elastic tubing of different diameters. Secondary outcomes included the development of reference equations of resistance according to elongation of Lemgruber® elastic tubing types and; the description of Lemgruber® elastic tubing safety and; the description of elongation of Lemgruber® elastic tubing using a clinically useful outcome (i.e. range of motion, in degrees).
Methods
The relation between elongation and resistance of Lemgruber® elastic tubing was investigated in a laboratory …
