About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study of Incentive Spirometer Versus Inspiratory Muscle Trainer on Pulmonary Function in Patients With Parkinsonism

Patients suffering from parkinsonism have respiratory function abnormalities. This study compared the effects of incentive spirometer and inspiratory muscle trainer on pulmonary functions in patients with parkinsonism.

Read the detailed description

The participants were recruited according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Participants were divided into two groups - incentive spirometer and inspiratory muscle trainer. These trainings were performed for 6 weeks duration. Several outcome measures related to pulmonary function tests were measured before and after the intervention.

    Distance walked by the patients in 6 minutes was measured.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  3. Forced vital capacity (FVC)

    Forced vital capacity was measured.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  4. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)

    Forced expiratory volume in 1 second was measured

    Measured: 6 weeks

  5. Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR)

    Peak Expiratory Flow Rate was measured

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inspiratory muscle training and Incentive Spirometry in people with Parkinson Disease, run by King Saud University at 1 site in Saudi Arabia.

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 7 inclusion and 6 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 10 Feb 2022. 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 Saudi Arabia. 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?

Maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 5 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 10 Feb 2022.
