About this study

Official title: Kronik Obstrüktif Akciğer Hastalığında Vücut Farkındalığı, Fonksiyonel Hareket Analizi ve İlişkili Parametrelerin Belirlenmesi

The aim of this study is to investigate body awareness and functional movement in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy controls.

Read the detailed description

It is aimed at investigating body awareness, and functional movement, and related factors in patients with COPD. The secondary purpose is to determine correlations between body awareness and functional movement, respiratory muscle strength and endurance, daily living activities, posture, and pain threshold in this study. The determination of correlations between functional movement, respiratory pattern, and functional exercise capacity is also purposed. In accordance with these purposes, at least 30 patients with COPD will be included and at least 30 healthy controls will be included. Tests and questionnaires will be used in order to determine the severity of disease. Lung function test and respiratory muscle strength and endurance test will be performed. Six Minute Walk Test will be performed for functional exercise capacity. To evaluate posture, the Corbin Postural Assessment Scale will be used. Pain and pain threshold will be assessed via Visual Analog Scale and an algometer, respectively. Body Awareness Rating Questionnaire will be used for evaluating body awareness. To evaluate daily living activities, Glittre Activities of Daily Living Test will be used. The Functional Movement Screen Test will be used for functional movement analysis. According to the results to be obtained, body awareness and functional movement will be determined in patients with COPD. It will guide professional working in this field.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of functional movement

    Functional movement analysis will be performed via The Functional Movement Screen.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Evaluation of Body Awareness

    Body awareness will be assessed via Body Awareness Rating Questionnaire. It consists of 24 questions and each item is scored on a 7-point Likert-type scale. The total score ranges from 24 to168. A Higher scores indicate higher body awareness.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Functional exercise capacity

    Functional exercise capacity will be assessed via Six minute walk test.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Respiratory muscle strength

    Respiratory muscle strength will be assessed via a using a mouth pressure device according to American Thoracic Society/ European Respiratory Society guidelines.

    Measured: 1

  3. Respiratory muscle endurance

    Respiratory muscle endurance will be assessed using the maximal incremental loading technique and constant loading technique using a device according to the European Respiratory Society guidelines.

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Pain Severity

    Severity of pain will be assessed via Visual Analog Scale. Zero point is defined as no pain and ten point as unbearable pain. Total point ranges from 0 to 10.

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Pain threshold

    Pain threshold will be assessed via an algometer.

    Measured: 1 day

  6. Posture

    Posture will be examined via the Corbin Postural Assessment Scale. The total points of the Corbin Postural Assessment Scale range from 0 to 28 points. A higher point represents worse posture.

    Measured: 1 day

  7. Daily living activities

    Daily living activities will be evaluated via Glittre Activities of Daily Living Test.

    Measured: 1 day

  8. Severity of disease

    Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary ABE assessment Tool will be used for severity of disease. According to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, the severity of airflow limitation (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 s) was determined as mild (≥ 80%), moderate (50-80%), severe (30-50%), and very severe (<30%). According to Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary A,B,E assessment Tool, patients classified group A, B, and E using symptom status and airflow limitation.

    Measured: 1 day

  9. Dyspnea

    The Modified Medical Research Council will be used for patients with COPD. The Modified Medical Research Council consist of five grades. A higher grades represents severe dyspnea level.

    Measured: 1 day

  10. Symptoms

    Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test will be used to determine symptoms. The total score of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test changes from 0 to 40 points, and 10 points is the accepted cut-off point for COPD.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive and Postural; Defect, run by Hacettepe 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 5 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2024. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of functional movement (time frame: 1 day). 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?
