About this study

Official title: Effect of Different Exercise Capacity Tests on Intercostal Muscle Oxygenation

The aim of our study is to determine the effects of different exercise capacity tests on intercostal muscle oxygenation and to reveal the effect of changing accessory respiratory muscle oxygenation on exercise test success.

Read the detailed description

In the study, intercostal muscle oxygenation will be measured in different exercise capacity tests. A total of 32 healthy young women and men between the ages of 18-25 who meet the inclusion criteria and voluntarily agree to participate in the study will be included in the study. The cases will be randomized into 2 groups: Six minute walking test group and incremental shuttle walking test group. Heart rate, oxygen saturation, and fatigue levels will be measured with the modified Borg scale before and after the tests. During the tests, oxygen levels of the intercostal muscles will be monitored with the MOXY device. After sufficient wash out time, the groups will be crossed and different exercise tests will be applied to the cases. The result of our study will provide information about the use of intercostal muscles during different exercise tests. As a result of the study, results that can be interpreted for patient groups with circulatory system, respiratory system and physical limitations will be obtained.

What participants receive

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

  • Six Minute Walking TestDiagnostic test

    It is applied in a 30 m long corridor in an indoor environment, and the distance walked by the patient in a six-minute period, oxygen saturation, heart rate, and change in dyspnea are recorded. For this, before starting the test, oxygen saturation, heart rate, arterial blood pressure and dyspnea level according to the Borg scale are recorded. The same parameters are measured again at the end of the test. The feature of this test is that the person walks at his own pace, stopping when necessary and allowing the use of oxygen. It is an exercise test that is easy to perform and well tolerated.

  • Shuttle walking testDiagnostic test

    Shuttle walking test at increasing speed is an exercise test in which walk between two cones 10 m apart at an increasing speed throughout the test and each 10-meter journey between the two cones is counted as a shuttle.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of Muscle Oxygenation of intercostal muscles

    The measurement will be made with the MOXY device. The device will be placed on the intercostal muscle and measurements will be taken during the exercise tests. Measured values at the beginning, end and every 1 minute will be taken and analyzed.

    Measured: During intervention

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Forced expiratory pressure in one second

    It will be performed with Cosmed Pony Fx (Italy) desktop spirometry device.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Evaluation of blood pressure

    Sistolik and diastolic blood pressure will be measured with the Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor

    Measured: During the intervention

  3. Evaluation of heart rate

    It will be measured with a pulse oximeter.

    Measured: During the intervention

  4. Evaluation of oxygen saturation

    It will be measured with a pulse oximeter.

    Measured: During the intervention

  5. Forced vital capacity

    It will be performed with Cosmed Pony Fx (Italy) desktop spirometry device.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Muscle Oxygenation, run by Istanbul Medipol University Hospital at 1 site 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 3 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 14 May 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact ESRA PEHLİVAN (02164189616, fztesrakambur@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of Muscle Oxygenation of intercostal muscles (time frame: During intervention). 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 14 May 2024.
