To assess the clinical effectiveness of a interdisciplinary rehabillitation programme (CR), in a population of morbidly obese subjects we have undertaken a observational study. Methods. The study included fifty-nine adult subjects (18 M, 60±10 years, BMI 47±8) with sleep-disturbance related symptoms and disabilities. Assessment and correction of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) abnormalities, improvement of exercise tolerance, body weight and associated psychological features were the aims of this CR, which has been carried out over a 1 month period.Lung functions, apnea/hypopnea index (AHI), 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), body weight (BW), quality of life by means of Sat-P questionnaire and serum metabolic data has been recorded at baseline (T0), at the end (T1) and 6 months after (T2) the CR. Results. The percentage of patients with AHI>10 declined from 65% (at T0) to 20% (at both T1 and T2). 6MWD and BW significantly improved (p |
