About this study

Official title: Upper Extremity Muscle Strength and Endurance, Functional Capacity, Respiratory Function and Quality of Life in Child and Adolescent With Cystic Fibrosis

This study was designed to investigate the relationship between upper extremity muscle strength and endurance, functional capacity, and quality of life child and adolescent with cystic fibrosis

Read the detailed description

Child and adolescent with cystic fibrosis patients were assessed for upper extremity muscle strength and (Shoulder abductors muscle strength, Elbow flexion muscle strength, Handgrip strength) muscular endurance(arm pull-up test), lung function test, and functional capacity (six-minute walk test distance), and Quality Of Life (Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised)

What is being measured

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

  1. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)

    Pulmonary function tests were evaluated with a spirometer. It is the volume of air released in the first second from the beginning of the difficult vital capacity maneuver. In general, it gives information about the restriction in major airlines. FEV1 / FVC ratio decrease shows obstruction, FEV1 shows the severity of obstruction.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Six-minute walk test

    In the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), subjects were asked to walk as fast as they could walk within 6 minutes along a 30-meter straight corridor. The test was performed twice within the same day at intervals of half an hour. The longer distance value for each patient from the two tests used was used for statistical analysis.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)

    Pulmonary function tests were evaluated with a spirometer. It is the volume of air that comes out with rapid and powerful exhalation following deep inspiratory. Healthy people can normally extract 80 percent of their lung volume in 6 seconds or less

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF)

    Pulmonary function tests were evaluated with a spirometer. It is measured by the maximum exhalation maneuver following the maximum inspiration. It gives information about obstruction in large airways.

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Upper Limb Muscle Strength

    Evaluation of peripheral muscle strength Deltoideus (shoulder abduction), Biceps Brachii (elbow flexion) muscles were evaluated with a digital dynamometer (Lafeyette manual muscle tester, U.S.A). Handgrip strength was measured by a hand dynamometer (Baseline LITE hand dynamometer, U.S.A). In each muscle test, the right and left sides were evaluated separately and repeated three times and the best values obtained were recorded in Newton (N). Arithmetic means of the right and left sides were used for statistical analysis.

    Measured: 1 day

  6. Upper Limb muscular endurance

    The arm pull-up test was used in the evaluation of muscular endurance.

    Measured: 1 day

  7. Ouality of Life

    Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) was used to evaluate the quality of life. There are four CFQ-R questionnaires for parents of children aged 6 years and over, three different age groups [6-10, 12-13, and over). The child's version of CFQ-R consists of 35 questions in 8 parts, Physical Functioning, Emotional Functioning, Social Functioning, Body Image, Eating Disturbances, Treatment Burden, Respiratory symptoms, and Digestive symptoms. Its values range from 0 to 100 points and the higher the score, the better quality of life.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing cystic fibrosis in people with Cystic Fibrosis and Muscle Strength, run by Cagtay Maden 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 1 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 Oct 2023. 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?

Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2023.
