Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of physiotherapeutical instructions on dysfunctional breathing in children and adolescents with or without asthma. Children and adolescents with dysfunctional breathing, are invited to participate in the intervention study. Participants are stratified by asthma diagnose status and randomized to physiotherapy or standard care. Participants are followed a year after the intervention, to compare the development in asthma control ( if asthma) and quality of life.


Description:

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of physiotherapeutical instructions on dysfunctional breathing in children and adolescents with or without asthma. All children and adolescents aged 10-17 years, followed in our outpatient clinic with the diagnose of asthma are invited to fulfill the Nijmegen Questionnaire (NQ) and the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ5) Children and adolescents where asthma was investigated and ruled out are invited to fulfill the NQ. Data from the electronic patient journal are used as descriptives. Participants with dysfunctional breathing (NQ >= 23) are invited to participate in the intervention study. Participants are stratified by asthma diagnose status and randomized to physiotherapy or standard care. Participants are followed a year after the intervention, to compare the development in asthma control measured by ACQ5 (if asthma) and quality of life measured by PedsQL. The effect of physiotherapy is analyzed separately for participants with and without asthma. In addition, primary outcomes are analyzed in a regression model with asthma status, age and sex as explanatory variables.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change from baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire ( ACQ5) at 6 months. ACQ5 contains 5 questions regarding asthma symptoms. Each question is scored between 0-6 points, where 0 represents very good asthma control and 6 represents poor asthma control. Total ACQ score is calculates as an average of points. ACQ5 is taken by participants with asthma, at visits in the outpatient clinic. ACQ is taken at baseline and 6 months after intervention as primary outcome.
Primary Change from baseline in Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory ( PedsQl) at 6 months PedsQl consists of 23 questions in 4 segments ( physical functioning, emotions, social interaction, and school activities). Each question is scored from 0 (best) to 4 (worst). The PedsQl questionnairre exists in formats for young children ( not used here), children aged 8-12 years and Teenagers aged 13-18 years. Children and adolescents are answering the age relevant questionnairre at visits in the out patient clinic. The PedsQl score is transformed to a 0-100 scale as follows: 0 =100, 1=75, 2=50, 3=25, 4=0. Health related Quality of life is calculated as a mean of scores. Psychosocial Health summary score is calculated as a mean of scores in the emotional, social and school functioning scales. Physical Health summary score is calculated as physical functioning scale score mean. PedsQL is taken at baseline and 6 months after intervention as primary outcome.
Secondary Change from baseline in Nijmegen Questionnaire ( NQ) NQ consists of 16 questions regarding dysfunctional breathing. Each question is scored between 0-4 points, where 0 is best and 4 is worst. NQ is taken at baseline and 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after intervention.
Secondary Change from baseline in Brompton breathing Pattern Assesment Tool ( BBPAT) BBPAT is a breathing scoring equipment where an observer is scoring the quality of breathing from seven parameters including respiratory rate, respiratory movements, in and expiratory sounds etc. Each parameter is scored from 0 ( best) to 2 ( worst). Total score is calculated between 0-14 point BBPAT is taken at baseline and 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after intervention.
Secondary Number of contacts to the hospital during one year from baseline Number of total contacts includes planned visits, extra visits and hospitalisations from baseline to 12 months after intervention.
Secondary Change from baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire ( ACQ5) at 6 weeks and one year. Change from 6 months in ACQ at 12 months. ACQ5 contains 5 questions regarding asthma symptoms. Each question is scored between 0-6 points, where 0 represents very good asthma control and 6 represents poor asthma control. Total ACQ score is calculates as an average of points. ACQ5 is taken by participants with asthma in the outpatient clinic at baseline and after 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months. ACQ5 is taken at 6 weeks and 12 months after intervention as secondary outcomes.
Secondary Change from baseline in Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory ( PedsQl) at at 6 weeks and one year. Change from 6 months in PedsQl at 12 months. PedsQl consists of 23 questions in 4 segments ( physical functioning, emotions, social interaction, and school activities). Each question is scored from 0 (best) to 4 (worst). The PedsQl questionnairre exists in formats for young children ( not used here), children aged 10-13 years and Teenagers aged 13-18 years. Children and adolescents are answering the age relevant questionnairre at visits in the out patient clinic. The PedsQl score is transformed to a 0-100 scale as follows. 0 =100, 1=75, 2=50, 3=25, 4=0. Health related Quality of life is calculated as mean of scores. Psychosocial Health summary score is calculated as mean of scores in the emotional, social and school functioning scales. Physical Health summary score is calculated physical functioning scale score mean. PedsQl is taken at 6 weeks and 12 months after intervention as secondary outcomes.
Secondary The reported use of rescue Beta2 agonist in puffs per week The reported use of short acting beta 2 agonist in puffs per week the last week. at baseline and 6 weeks, 6 months and 12 months after intervention.
