What is being measured

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

  1. Exercise capacity

    Will be evaluated with 6 minute walk test. After the test, total walking distance will be recorded.

    Measured: 1st day

  2. Respiratory function

    FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, PEF, FEF25-75 will be measured by lung function test.

    Measured: 1st day

  3. Respiratory muscle strength

    Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) will be measured using a mouth pressure device.

    Measured: 1st day

  4. Musle function

    Knee extensor and hand grip strength will be evaluated with a dynamometer.

    Measured: 1st day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physical activity

    Physical activity level will be evaluated using International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short form. This questionnaire lists activities and asks for estimates of the duration and frequency of each activity in the past week. The durations are multiplied by the MET value for each activity and the results for all items are summed to give an overall physical activity score.

    Measured: 1st day
