About this study

Official title: Effects of Lower Limb Resistance Versus Endurance Training on Pulmonary Function in Smokers With Shortness of Breath

Patients was selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Experimental group was treated with Resistance training while control group received endurance training. Data was collected by spirometry and International Physical activity questionnaire readings was recorded in every session for baseline, 3rd week and 6thweeks.

Read the detailed description

Experimental group will receive lower limb strength training and control group will receive endurance training. Both groups will receive treatment for three days a week and each session will be given according to FITT formula. Measurement will be recorder pre-treatment and post treatment of both groups at baseline, third , and 6 th week.

What is being measured

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

  1. Spirometry

    Spirometry is one of the Pulmonary Function Test; they are useful investigations in the management of patients with respiratory disease or respiratory weakness secondary to neurological impairment. They aid diagnosis, help monitor response to treatment and can guide decisions regarding further treatment and intervention. Spirometry can measure all the lung volumes except residual volume.

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. International Physical Activity Questionnaire

    The International Physical Activity Questionnaire is a 27-item self-reported measure of physical activity for use with individual adult patients aged 15 to 69 years old. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire can be used clinically and in population research that compares physical activity levels between populations internationally.To calculate MET minutes a week multiply the MET value given (remember walking = 3.3, moderate activity = 4, vigorous activity = 8) by the minutes the activity was carried out and again by the number of days that that activity was undertaken. For example if someone reports walking for 30 minutes 5 days a week then the total MET minutes for that activity are 3.3 X 30 X 5=495 Met minutes a week.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing lower limb strength training and endurance training in people with Smoking, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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 5 Nov 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 Pakistan. 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?

Spirometry (time frame: 6 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 5 Nov 2024.
