About this study

Official title: Early Effects of Physiotherapy Program Applied Before and After Bariatric Surgery on Respiratory Function, Respiratory Muscle Strength and Functional Capacity in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The aim of this study is to investigate the early effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) applied before and after bariatric surgery on respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

The study will be conducted with 40 individuals with type 2 diabetes aged between 25-65. Individuals will be randomly assigned to the IMT (trained at 30% of maximum inspiratory pressure with an IMT threshold device) and control group. As measurement parameters, a 6-minute walk test for functional capacity, a spirometry test for respiratory function, and a portable device (Cosmed Pony FX Desktop Spirometer, USA) will be used for respiratory muscle strength. Hand grip strength will be measured with a Baseline dynamometer. All measurements will be repeated on the first day before surgery and on the fourth day before discharge after surgery.

Read the detailed description

All patients will be evaluated with the same examinations on the first day before surgery and on the fourth day after surgery before discharge. Individuals in the control group will only apply the hospital routine exercise program in the postoperative period. While individuals in the IMT group will receive only IMT on the first day before surgery, they will also receive the hospital routine exercise program in addition to IMT treatment from the first day to the fourth day after surgery. During the training, the patient will undergo two 20-minute training sessions with a linear pressure resistance device, wearing a nose clip (Threshold® IMT-Health Scan Products, USA) in a sitting position (ATS/ETS, 2002). IMT training load will be adjusted according to the 30-40% pressure determined in the MIP measurement. In the postoperative period, all patients will receive incentive spirometry, breathing exercises and ambulation exercises as part of the hospital routine exercise program.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Respiratory Muscle Strength

    Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) were evaluated with a portable device (Cosmed Pony FX Desktop Spirometer, USA). MIP measurement was performed at the residual volume.

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Respiratory Function

    The respiratory function measured using a spirometer device (Cosmed Srl, Cosmed Pony Fx, Rome, Italy) consisted of physiological measurement of the volume and flow per second of the air entering and exiting the lungs of the individual during inspiration and expiration

    Measured: 5 days

  3. Functional Capacity: The 6-minute walk test

    The 6-minute walk test is a practical test that can easily be applied at the level of submaximal effort used in the evaluation of functional capacity. The test is performed indoors, in a 30-meter flat, non-slippery place with marked two ends, and where there is no material to hinder the person being tested.

    Measured: 5 days

  4. Hand Grip Strength

    Grip strength in the dominant and nondominant hand was evaluated in 'kg' using the grip hand dynamometer (Baseline Smedley, Model 12-0286, White Plains, NY, USA).

    Measured: 5 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing IMT Group in people with Type 2 Diabetes and Bariatric Surgery Candidate, run by Near East University, Turkey at 1 site in Cyprus.

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 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 25 Apr 2024. 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 Cyprus. 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?

Respiratory Muscle Strength (time frame: 5 days). The study lists 4 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 25 Apr 2024.
