The number of people suffering from this debilitating condition is predicted to grow exponentially over the next decade. This has serious implications for the health services. Investigating heart failure is not cheap even where facilities exist. The drugs used, though effective – often remarkably so – are also costly as are laboratory investigations. These again are not cheap. People with heart failure require frequent admissions to hospital and occupy many beds and much staff attention. All of these factors are set to increase over the next decades. This eclectic collection of papers tackles many of the issues that concern those who care for individuals with heart failure; organisation of services, exercise, palliative care amongst them, but also novel and rarely discussed issues. The book is suited to both pre and post-registered health care students. We do not supply inspection copies but we do supply Examination copies, whereby a course leader has 30 days to evaluate the book, then choose to adopt, purchase or return the book.

Exercise-Cognition Interaction: Neuroscience Perspectives is the only book on the market that examines the neuroscientific correlation between exercise and cognitive functioning. The upsurge in research in recent years has confirmed that cognitive-psychology theory cannot account for the effects of exercise on cognition, and both acute and chronic exercise effect neurochemical and psychophysiological changes in the brain that, in turn, affect cognitive functioning. This book provides an overview of the research into these effects, from theoretical research through current studies that emphasize neuroscientific theories and rationales. It addition, users will find a thorough examination of the effects of exercise interventions on cognitive functioning in special populations, including the elderly, children, and those suffering from a variety of diseases, including schizophrenia, diabetes, and an array of neurological disorders. With contributions from leading researchers in the field, this book will be the go-to resource for neuroscientists, psychologists, medical professionals, and other researchers who need an understanding of the role exercise plays in cognitive functioning. Provides a comprehensive account of how exercise affects brain functioning, which in turn affects cognition Covers both theory and empirical research Presents a thorough examination of the effects of exercise interventions on cognitive functioning in special populations, including the elderly, children, and those suffering from a variety of diseases Examines neurochemical, psychophysiological, and genetic factors Covers acute and chronic exercise

Patients with heart failure (HF) suffer from symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue and reduced quality of life, which affect their physical function and often lead to immobilization and poor survival prognosis. Exercise training in cardiac rehabilitation should be offered to every patient with HF and can be performed both in a hospital-setting and with a home training programme. Exercise, in patients with HF, improves physical function and functional capacity as well as health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and reduces the need for hospital care. There are several barriers against participating in exercise based cardiac rehabilitation despite information about its benefits. The patient may anticipate not being able to exercise, that the exercise would be too hard, lives far away or has not been referred. Aim: The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effects of exercise in heart failure patients, of a one-year training programme, with hospital-based training followed by a home-based setting or only home-based, with special emphasis on peripheral muscle training (PMT). Furthermore, to study frequently used methods for evaluation of the effects, i.e the 6-minute walk test and instruments for estimating health-related quality of life. Methods and findings: In study I, PMT was evaluated and the PMT programme in a hospital-setting (with equipment) and subsequent homebased training (with elastic bands) was compared with solely home-based training, over 1 year. At follow-up every third month, duplicated six minute walk test (6MWT) and two HRQoL questionnaires were used. The walking distance increased significantly after three months in both groups and was maintained thereafter. Also HRQoL increased but at different time points. In study II, PMT was compared with interval training on an ergometer bike/free walking. Both groups started under supervision of a physiotherapist in a hospital-setting, for three months and thereafter at home for nine months. The same measurements were used as in study I. Neither walking distance nor HRQoL changed over the study period. However, this may be regarded as a positive effect in the light of the known progressive nature of heart failure. In study III, the 6MWTs from study I and II were used to evaluate the necessity of performing duplicated 6MWTs in follow-ups clinically and for research purposes. We found that it is sufficient to perform one 6MWT. In study IV, both 6MWT and HRQoL forms from study I and II were used to investigate the relationship between walking distance and perceived HRQoL in HF patients. Patients with shorter walking distance, than the group median, experienced poorer general HRQoL but not HRQoL related to HF, than the higher performing half of the study group. There were no longitudinal trends in these relationships. Conclusion: PMT can be used as an exercise modality in patients with HF, both in hospital and at home, and may be evaluated with a single 6MWT. Shorter walking distance was related to a lower general HRQoL as judged by the patients but there was no significant relation between short walking distance and the HF-related HRQoL. Individualizing the training programme and methods, and offering the choice of exercise modality and the possibility of exercising at home, might be a way to increase adherence in cardiac rehabilitation. Patienter med hjärtsvikt besväras av andfåddhet och trötthet vilket påverkar deras fysiska funktion och ofta leder till immobilisering, nedsatt livskvalitet och dålig prognos. Träning inom hjärtrehabilitering bör erbjudas alla patienter med hjärtsvikt och kan utföras såväl på sjukhus som hemma med hemträningsprogram. Träning vid hjärtsvikt förbättrar fysisk funktion och funktionell kapacitet, hälsorelaterad livskvalitet, och minskar behovet av vård på sjukhus. Det finns många barriärer till att delta i hjärtrehabilitering trots information om vinster, t ex att patienten tror sig inte klara av att träna, bor långt ifrån, har inte fått remiss för att nämna några. Syfte: Syftet med avhandlingen var att utvärdera effekterna av ett träningsprogram för patienter med hjärtsvikt under 1 år, träning på sjukhus följt av hemträning eller enbart hemträning. Ett specifikt syfte var att utvärdera perifer muskelträning (PMT) som en möjlig, lämplig träningsmetod för hjärtsviktspatienter. Vidare var syftet att utvärdera effekten av sex minuters gångtest och hälsorelaterad livskvalitet. Metod och resultat: I studie I utvärderades PMT och jämförde träning på sjukhus (med redskap) med efterföljande hemträning (med elastiska band) med enbart hemträning under 1 år. Vid utvärdering var tredje månad användes dubbla sex minuters gångtest och frågeformulär om livskvalitet. Gångsträckan ökade signifikant efter träning och höll i sig hela träningsperioden i båda grupperna. Även livskvaliteten ökade men vid olika tidpunkter. I studie II, jämfördes PMT med intervallträning på ergometercykel/promenader. Båda grupperna tränade under ledning av fysioterapeut i tre månader och därefter hemma upp till 1 år. Samma utvärdering som i studie I. Gångsträcka och livskvaliteten ändrade sig inte under studietiden. Det kan dock ses som en positiv effekt eftersom hjärtsviktspatienter vanligen försämras över tid. I studie III, användes gångtesten från studie I och II för att utvärdera om det är nödvändighet att utföra dubbla sex minuters gångtest vid utvärdering. Ingen kliniskt betydelsefull skillnad sågs mellan gångtest ett och två. I studie IV, användes både gångtest och livskvalitetsformulär, från studie I och II, för att undersöka samband mellan gångsträcka och upplevd livskvalitet och om detta samband ändrades med tiden. Patienter med kortare gångsträcka upplevde sämre allmän hälsorelaterad livskvalitet men inte livskvalitet relaterad till hjärtsvikten, någon kliniskt signifikant förändring över tid kunde inte påvisas. Konklusion: Perifer muskelträning kan användas som en säker träningsform för patienter med hjärtsvikt, både på sjukhus och som hemträning och kan utvärderas med endast ett sex minuters gångtest. Patienter med kortare gångsträcka upplever sämre allmän livskvalitet vilket förefaller relativt oberoende av de olika testtidpunkterna.

Roughly one of every three Americans has some form of cardiovascular disease (CVD), including more than 70% of persons older than 75 years of age. Long associated with increased risk for mortality and disability, CVD is also a major risk factor for stroke and cerebrovascular disease. There has been growing consensus that CVD is also an important contributor to poor neurocognitive outcome in own right. Numerous studies now link CVD to accelerated cognitive decline, and structural and functional brain abnormalities, including neurodegnerative conditions in the elderly. While vascular dementia is the most obvious example of severe brain dysfunction directly tied to chronic vascular disease, evidence is also mounting that Alzheimer's disease may be linked to some of the same pathophysiological mechanisms that underlie cardiovascular disease. This book was written to provide up-to-date insight into these heart-brain connections and the neuropsychology of CVD. Highlights include: · Controversies in vascular dementia and vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) · Effects of aging on cerebral hemodynamics and autoregulation · How blood vessel function contributes to cognitive decline · Updates on the cognitive impact of cardiosurgical procedures · Neurocognitive aspects of heart failure · Neuropsychological evaluation of persons with CVD · Mechanisms by which neurological changes produce cardiac dysfunction · Recent findings in the structural and functional neuroimaging in CVD Both clinicians and researchers in neuropsychology, health psychology, cardiology, neurology, psychiatry, geriatrics and many others will find this book an important resource.
