About this study

Official title: Effects of Pulmonary Rehabilitation Therapy on Pulmonary Function and Health Related Quality of Life in Non-chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients

To determine the effect of pulmonary rehabilitation on pulmonary function in non-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.To determine the effect of pulmonary rehabilitation on health related quality of life in non-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.Limited researches are available in non chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.

Read the detailed description

A review state that "Interstitial lung disease presents clinical features of exertional desaturation and a nonproductive cough. Patients with ILD have significantly reduced exercise capacity as manifested by a reduced maximum work load achieved during exercise, as well as a reduced maximal oxygen uptake VO2max." in previous studies Pulmonary rehabilitation is the use of exercise, education and behavioral interventions for diseases such as non-ILD restrictive lung disease, asthma, lung cancer, bronchiectasis , and pulmonary hypertension, pre and post op thoracic surgery patients.

Quality of life (QOL) as an individual's perception of contentment or satisfaction with life in areas he or she considers important, and we define health-related quality of life (HRQL) as an individual's perception of the impact of health (in all its many facets) on his or her quality of life. a study on pulmonary rehabilitation outcomes between individuals with chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) and non-COPD disease and its impact on gender.

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)

    Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second FEV1 in Liters

    Measured: 3 weeks, 6 weeks

  2. Forced vital Capacity (FVC)

    Changes From the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced vital Capacity in Liters

    Measured: 3 weeks,6 weeks

  3. Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF)

    Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze peak expiratory flow PEF in Liter/second.

    Measured: 3 weeks,6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Health related Quality of life

    Measured through St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire in its COPD-specific version (SGRQ-C). The SGRQ-C with 40 items provides three component scores for symptoms, activity and impact, and a total score. Each score ranges from 0 (no impairment) to 100 (worst possible). A difference of 4 unit points is considered the minimum clinically important difference (MCID).

    Measured: 3 weeks,6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Conventional Chest Physiotherapy and Aerobic training Group in people with Pneumonia and Pulmonary Fibrosis, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 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 Pakistan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Imran Amjad, Phd (03324390125, imran.amjad@riphah.edu.pk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) (time frame: 3 weeks, 6 weeks). The study lists 3 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 21 Feb 2023.
