About this study

Official title: Comparison of Respiratory Function, Exercise Capacity and Peripheral Muscle Strength Among Patients With Cystic Fibrosis, Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia and Healthy Children

The aim of this study is to compare pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, exercise capacity and peripheral muscle strength of patients with CF, PCD and healthy childrens.

Read the detailed description

The impaired airway clearence and pulmonary functions, exercise intolerance, low physical activity level and decreased peripheral muscle strength make physiotherapy approaches important in the management of CF and PCD.

Being tested
Measurement of functional capacity, pulmonary function test, Functional capacity, Peripheral muscle strength, Respiratory muscle strength
Keywords
respiratory functions, exercise capacity, muscle strength
Medical subject headings
Ciliary Motility Disorders, Cystic Fibrosis

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Measurement of functional capacityOther

    Functional capacity of participants will be measured with six-minute walk test.

  • pulmonary function testOther

    It will be measured using basic spirometry and presented lung volume parameters such as FEV1,FVC,FEV1/FVC,PEF, FEF25-75

  • Functional capacityOther

    Functional capacity of participants will be measured with six-minute walk test and sit-to-stand test

  • Peripheral muscle strengthOther

    Isometric M. Quadriceps strength will be measured using electronic hand held dynamometer in sitting position.

  • Respiratory muscle strengthOther

    Inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength has been assessed by maximal inspiratory and expiratory mouth pressures.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Six-minute walk test distance

    Distance walked in six minutes will be recorded in meters. Test will be conducted according to the guideline of American Thoracic Society (ATS).

    Measured: 15 minutes

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)

    FVC will be measured using basic spirometry and expressed as the percentage of the predicted value according to the guideline of European Respiratory Society (ERS)

    Measured: 5 minutes

  2. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1)

    FEV1 will be measured using basic spirometry and expressed as the percentage of the predicted value according to the guideline of European Respiratory Society (ERS)

    Measured: 5 minutes

  3. Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF)

    PEF will be measured using basic spirometry and expressed as the percentage of the predicted value according to the guideline of European Respiratory Society (ERS)

    Measured: 5 minutes

  4. M. Quadriceps strength

    Isometric M. Quadriceps strength (kg) will be measured using electronic hand held dynamometer in sitting position.

    Measured: 5 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia and Cystic Fibrosis, run by Bezmialem Vakif University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Six-minute walk test distance (time frame: 15 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Mar 2020.
