Abstract des Autors

A graded arm exercise until exhaustion was applied to 28 boys, aged 16-17 years, with infantile cerebral palsy (Group 1; n=14) or flaccid paresis of lower limbs (Group 2; n=14) of spinal origin. Cardiorespiratory indices were recorded in a maximal exercise and at the threshold of decompensated metabolic acidosis (TDMA), determined from the physiological response-work load relations. Significantly higher values of maximal oxygen uptake were noted in Group 2 than in Group 1 (43.4 and 35.0 ml/min/kg). In boys with flaccid leg paresis also the TDMA took place at higher load and higher oxygen uptake than in those with spastic paresis (1.9 vs. 1.3 W/kg and 29.3 vs. 25.4 ml/min/kg, respectively). The assessment of aerobic capacity and TDMA may be of importance when planning loads in rehabilitation training. Verf.-Referat
