The Effect of Chronic Breathing Exercises on Pulmonary Functions: A Study on Combined Aerobic Exercise and Synchronized Breathing Exercises
A study testing aerobic exercise with synchronized breathing group in people with Pulmonary and Exercise, run by Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University at 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye).
Trial summary
In this respect, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of synchronous breathing exercise and aerobic exercise on pulmonary functions. In the study, three groups including a control group (CG), an aerobic exercise group (AE), and both breathing and aerobic exercise (AE+SB) were compared and analyzed. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Experimental and Quantitative Research Method
In this respect, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of synchronous breathing exercise and aerobic exercise on pulmonary functions. In the study, three groups including a control group (CG), an aerobic exercise group (AE), and both breathing and aerobic exercise (AE+SB) were compared and analyzed. In the study, the accuracy of the following hypotheses was tried to be investigated. H1a "Synchronous breathing exercise has an impact on respiratory function." H1b "Aerobic exercises have an impact on respiratory function." H1c "Synchronized breathing exercises combined with aerobic exercises have a greater impact on respiratory function."

This study was ethically approved by the Bandirma Onyedi Eylül University Rectorate Health Sciences Non-Interventional Research Ethics Committee with the meeting decision numbered 2024-1 on 16.01.2024. Within the scope of the study, all participants were informed about the purpose of the study, the reason for the study, and its contribution to the literature. The participants were informed that this study would be conducted on a completely voluntary basis and that they could withdraw from the study at any time. This study was conducted in accordance with the principles set out in the Declaration of Helsinki. In this study, an experimental and quantitative research method including pre-test and post-test measurements will be used and the chronic effect of 8-week breathing exercises on pulmonary functions, heart rate, and peripheral oxygen saturation (SPO2) level will be examined. Participants' pulmonary function and resting heart rate will be measured

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing aerobic exercise with synchronized breathing group in people with Pulmonary and Exercise, run by Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 26 Nov 2025. 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?
Pre_Pulmonary Function Test (time frame: 8 weeks). The study lists 2 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 26 Nov 2025.
