About Pramod
Dr. Pramod Sharma serves as a Lecturer (Teaching Focused) in the School of Health Sciences and Social Work, part of Griffith Health at Griffith University on the Gold Coast campus. He obtained his PhD in Respiratory Physiology from Griffith University, completing his doctoral studies from 2010 to 2015. Supported by a Griffith University Postgraduate Research Scholarship during his PhD, Sharma's academic career has centered on exercise physiology, with a particular emphasis on exertional dyspnoea and its modulation in clinical populations. Previously holding the position of Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the same institution, his research investigates physiological responses to various exercise modalities, the impact of psychological states on symptom perception during physical activity, and interventions to enhance exercise performance in patients with chronic conditions.
Sharma's key publications include 'Effect of experimental modulation of mood on exertional dyspnoea in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease' (Respirology, 2023), which examined how mood alterations influence breathing discomfort during exercise in COPD patients, funded in part by National Health and Medical Research Council grant APP597411. Other notable works are 'Physiological Responses to Sit-to-Stand and Six-Minute Walk Tests in Heart Failure: A Randomised Trial' (Heart Lung and Circulation, 2025), comparing responses across common functional tests; 'Acute Lower-Limb Heating Improves Exercise Performance in Individuals with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction' (European Journal of Heart Failure, 2025); 'Examining the role of mood in pain-limited treadmill walking duration in young healthy individuals' (European Journal of Pain, 2023); 'Effect of Experimental Modulation of Mood on Perception of Exertional Dyspnea in Healthy Subjects' (Journal of Applied Physiology, 2015); and 'Effect of induced leg muscle fatigue on exertional dyspnea in healthy subjects' (Journal of Applied Physiology, 2015). Earlier contributions encompass 'Prevalence of Dyspnea and its Associated Factors in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease' (2019), identifying duration of illness, depression, and CAT scores as significant factors, and 'Experimental modulation of mood by acoustic stimulation and its effect on exertional dyspnoea' (Thorax, 2019). With over 100 citations across 14 publications, Sharma's research advances understanding of dyspnoea mechanisms and exercise limitations in respiratory and cardiac diseases, contributing to allied health practices.
