Cool facial airflow speeds recovery from exertion induced breathlessness in people with chronic breathlessness (2024)
Thesis
Burrell, T. Cool facial airflow speeds recovery from exertion induced breathlessness in people with chronic breathlessness. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4869747

Background: Evidence supports facial airflow from a handheld fan to reduce breathlessness in patients with chronic breathlessness. The thesis explored the effectiveness of different airflow speeds on recovery from exertion-induced breathlessness.

Airflow rates and breathlessness recovery from submaximal exercise in healthy adults: prospective, randomised, cross-over study. BMJ supportive & palliative care, https://doi.org/10.1136/spcare-2023-004309

Objectives: Facial airflow from a hand-held fan may reduce breathlessness severity and hasten postexertion recovery. Data from randomised controlled trials are limited and the optimal airflow speed remains unknown. We aimed to determine the effect of...
