November 14, 2024 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT
Presented by: Bryan J. Taylor, PhD, FACSM
In this session, the presenters will discuss the evolving evidence that exercise-based cardiac or pulmonary (p)rehabilitation should be considered essential in optimizing functional capacity, enhancing health-related quality-of-life, decreasing post-operative complications and improving outcomes in heart or lung transplant candidates and recipients. Based on their clinical practice and giving case examples where appropriate, they will also detail the importance of a team-based approach in optimizing the (p)rehabilitation of such patients and consider the increasing challenge posed by patients who experience a complicated pre- and/or post-transplant course and explore the potential utility of alternative approaches to exercise training and rehabilitation delivery in these patients.
Learning Objectives:
- Summarize the evidence that exercise-based pulmonary (p)rehabilitation can optimize functional capacity, enhance health-related quality-of-life, and improve outcomes in lung transplant candidates and recipients.
- Identify the prevalence and prognostic significance of frailty in lung transplant candidates and recipients.
- Recognize the practical considerations for the management of pre- and post-operative complications and the need for education on indefinite self-monitoring in lung transplant recipients.
