| Research Abstract |
Several studies were performed to investigate the lung and cardio functional risk during rehabilitation program in stroke patients using the expiration gas analysis system. The results suggested that the burden (risk) for cardio and lung function in occupational therapy (upper extremity exercise) was significantly low compared with that in physical therapy (lower extremity exercise). In addition, activities that stroke patients want to do or have to do showed high burden (risk) significantly rather than upper extremity exercise in occupational therapy. Our results suggested that occupational therapy (upper extremity exercise) was performed for not only stroke patients but also COPD and cardio disease patients in safety.
