OTRAS ENFERMEDADES RESPIRATORIAS
La casi totalidad de las enfermedades respiratorias crónicas pueden producir disnea asociada al ejercicio; sin embargo, la mayoría
presentarán disnea cuando esta enfermedad se encuentra en un estado avanzado y su diagnóstico ya se ha establecido previamente. En
estos casos, la magnitud de los síntomas con el ejercicio tendrá una clara correlación con el grado de compromiso de la función pulmonar
y será progresiva en el tiempo en forma paralela al avance de la enfermedad respiratoria como ocurre en Fibrosis quística o Enfermedades
neuromusculares.
Independiente de la enfermedad respiratoria crónica a considerar, el ejercicio es parte fundamental del tratamiento permanente
puesto que mejora la limpieza bronquial a través de la tos. Especialmente útil es considerar el ejercicio como tratamiento en aquellas
enfermedades con alta producción de expectoración como fibrosis quística y disquinesia ciliar. Adicionalmente el ejercicio mejora la capacidad
aeróbica a través del entrenamiento muscular, lo que permite disminuir exacerbaciones por ejemplo en enfermedades neuromusculares.
Dependiendo del tipo de enfermedad respiratoria crónica, existe una variable respuesta al ejercicio regular que debe indicarse en forma
específica para cada una de ellas.
