What is being measured

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

  1. forced expiratory volume t the first second of expiration

    it will measure pulmonary function

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. forced vital capcity

    it will measure pulmonary function

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

  2. FEV1/FVC

    it will measure pulmonary function

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

  3. maximal inspiratory pressure

    it will measure strength of inspiratory muscles

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

  4. six minute walk testing

    it will measure aerobic capacity

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

  5. Pediatrics' Quality of Life Inventory (children proxy)

    it will assess quality of life and filled by children

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

  6. Pediatrics' Quality of Life Inventory (parent proxy)

    it will assess quality of life and filled by parents of children

    Measured: it will be assessed after 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing inspiratory muscle training in people with Beta Thalassemia Major, run by Ahram Canadian University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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

Contact hagar el-hadidy, lecturer (020100 745 3552, hagarhadidy2016@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

forced expiratory volume t the first second of expiration (time frame: it will be assessed after 12 weeks). 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.
