Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a preventable and treatable disease. However, without treatment, mortality from TB is 50%, whereas with treatment, 85% of people with TB can be cured. Incomplete treatment of pulmonary TB can lead to various complications, one is hydropneumothorax, which is an abnormal picture of air and fluid in the pleural cavity. Complications of this condition can lead to long-term impairment of lung function with varying degrees of severity. Pain and shortness of breath are clinical features that interfere with daily activities and are associated with a decreased quality of life. Pulmonary rehabilitation is a crucial component in managing respiratory diseases, including pneumothorax, which aims to restore respiratory muscle strength, optimize lung expansion, and prevent complications such as atelectasis, pleural adhesions, or chronic respiratory insufficiency. Case: A 26-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with moderate dyspnea. She was diagnosed with loss to follow-up (LTFU) TB with bilateral hydropneumothorax and malnutrition. She was in the third month of a four-drug anti-TB regimen and had a chest tube with water shield drainage (WSD) placed in both the right and left chest walls. The rehabilitation problems in these patients are dyspnea, pain in the chest tube insertion area, immobilization, and partial dependency. Discussion: A pulmonary rehabilitation program was initiated during hospitalization and continued in the outpatient rehabilitation clinic, including energy conservation techniques, breathing exercises, relaxation, splinted cough, chest wall mobilization, respiratory muscle stretching, and laser therapy for pain management. Barthel Index (BI) shows improvement from 10 to 45 due to pain reduction. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) 7-8 to 5, allowing the patient to use her right upper extremity for daily activities. Conclusion: Pulmonary rehabilitation is a cost-effective therapy that can improve symptoms and quality of life in patients with post-TB hydropneumothorax. It also reduces spasms, dyspnea, and pain.

Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a prevalent and debilitating chronic respiratory condition that not only affects the lungs but has far-reaching systemic consequences; one such consequence is the heightened risk of developing sarcopenia, a condition characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. Recent studies have highlighted the significant prevalence of sarcopenia among COPD patients, with rates ranging from 7.9% to 66.7%. This association underscores the importance of early identification and intervention to mitigate the adverse outcomes related to both conditions. Managing COPD patients with sarcopenia is fraught with challenges, primarily due to the multifaceted nature of both conditions. Sarcopenia exacerbates the decline in respiratory function and physical performance in COPD patients, complicating treatment and management strategies. The complexity is further amplified by the need for personalized treatment plans that address these conditions' pulmonary and musculoskeletal aspects. Precise assessment and re-evaluation are essential to ensure optimal outcomes and enhance physical and functional well-being. Rehabilitation for COPD patients with sarcopenia involves a multidisciplinary approach, focusing on exercise training, nutritional support, and pulmonary interventions. Pulmonary rehabilitation programs, tailored to individual patient needs and capabilities, have shown promise in improving exercise capacity, functional performance, and overall health status, thereby enhancing the quality of life for these patients.  In this literature review, we will discuss the elevated risk of sarcopenia in COPD patients, highlight the significance of rehabilitation management, and emphasize the pivotal role of precise assessment and re-evaluation in optimizing the care provided to this population.
