Abstract
The purpose of this study is to compare, the effects of high intensity aerobics in water verus High Intensity aerobics in land Training in moderate COPD. A total number of 30 subjects of age group between 40-60 years diagnosed as COPD are randomly selected for the study. They are divided in two group ; High Intensity aerobics in water training (Group A) and High Intensity aerobics in land training (Group B). After randomizing Group A subjects are given High Intensity aerobics in water training for a period of 6 months. Group B subjects were given High Intensity aerobics in land training for a period of 6 months. The pre & post test values of perception of Dyspnoea, Exercise capacity & quality of life are measured. The paired t-test is to compare the pre test Vs Post test Values perception of Dyspnoea, exercise capacity & quality of life. Based on the statistical analysis the result of this study show a significant improvement in both groups following High intensity aerobics in water training and high intensity aerobics in land training programme. Based on the analysis and interpretation of perceptions of Dyspnoea the unparired t value 5.8 was greater than the tabulated T-value at 2.05 level which should a statistically significant difference between Pre Vs Post test results of group A & B. the mean value of Group A was - 4.5 B was 2.6 and the mean difference was 1.09 , which should a significant reduction in perception of dyspnoea in High Intensity aerobics in water training Group A compared High Intensity aerobics land training Group B. BASED ON THIS ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION OF QUALITY OF LIFE (QOL): Based on the analysis and interpretation of quality of life (QOL) the unpaired t-value 7.40 was greater than the tabulated t-values at 2.05 level which showed a statistically difference between Pre Vs Post result of group A & B. the mean value of Group A was 3.13 ; Group B was 2.4 and the mean difference was 1.9, which should a significant improvement in quality of life (QOL) in high intensity aerobics in water trained Group B compared to high Intensity aerobics in land trained Group B. BASED ON THIS ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION OF EXERCISE CAPACITY (EC): Based on the analysis and interpretation of exercise capacity (EC) the unpaired t-value 4.6 was greater that the tabulated t-value at 2.05 level which showed a statistically significant difference between Pre Vs Post test result of group A and B. The mean value of Group A was 36.3 ; Group B was 25.7and the mean difference was 10.6, which showed a significant improvement in exercise capacity (EC) in high intensity aerobic in water trained Group A compared to High Intensity aerobic in land trained Group B. CONCLUSION: The study showed a significant reduction in and perception of Dyspnoea increase in quality of life (QOL) and exercise capacity in COPD patients after the High Intensity aerobics in water training and High Intensity aerobics in land training. The study showed that the High Intensity aerobics in water training was most effective than high intensity aerobics in land training on perception of Dyspnoea quality of life and exercise capacity.
