Pulmonary Fitness Clinic Helps Patients Breath Easier
Fred White and Rosella Aird, both with breathing problems, attend Frederick Memorial Hospital's pulmonary fitness clinic. Twice weekly sessions include treadmill and cycle work supervised by respiratory therapists. White improved his breathing capacity from 45 to 60 percent and both emphasize healthier habits, weight control, and ongoing home exercise. The program serves chronic bronchitis, emphysema, asthma and bronchiectasis, with doctors referring participants and occupational screening offered for workers in local factories.
