Does Inspiratory Threshold Loading and Visual Tasking Affect Visual Attention Accuracy?
Although physical activity is often prescribed according to the musculoskeletal or cardiovascular stress, the cognitive interference of how dyspnea compromises cognitive function should be considered. The inability to attend to visual detail during added respiratory loads with associated dyspnea should be considered during assessment and treatment planning. A physical-cognitive approach to prescription of physical function may ensure more transferability to daily activities.
