About this study

Official title: The Effect of Resistant Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Exercises on Respiratory Muscle Strength in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases

To investigate the effects of resistant proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises on physical fitness, respiratory muscle strength, walking distance and quality of life in chronic obstructive pulmonary patients.

Read the detailed description

The study was carried out between January 2017 and January 2019, with patients followed up with the diagnosis of COPD in Çanakkale Mehmet Akif Ersoy State Hospital and Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Medical Faculty Hospital, Department of Chest Diseases. It was approved by Istanbul Medipol University Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee (Date: 30.12.2016, Decision No. 573) and was done in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. All participants were informed about the purpose of the study, the total duration of treatment and the applications to be made, and a consent form was signed. The study was conducted as a prospective and randomized controlled study, and inclusion and exclusion criteria were determined.

Thirty-five patients diagnosed with COPD were referred to the study, four patients were excluded because they did not meet the inclusion criteria, and the study was conducted with a total of 31 participants.

The 31 patients included in the study were randomized after their initial evaluation and divided into two groups as experimental and control groups. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria were divided into 2 groups. Randomized by ordering by date of application.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MIP/MEP in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Istanbul Medipol University Hospital at 2 sites 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

HADS (time frame: 10 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 10 Feb 2023.
