Filter by:To overcome the lack of knowledge regarding the impact of different "living low, training high" methods on swimming performance, a 4-week intervention will be carried out to determine and compare the effects of three Repeated Sprints in Hypoxia (RSH) methods with each other and with a control group. Our goal is to characterize and compare the adaptations in swimming performance and in cardiorespiratory, metabolic, and muscle oxygenation responses that can arise after a 4-week training period of RSH and RSH-voluntary hypoventilation (VHL) performed in a ski-ergometer.
This study plans to learn more about specific breathing and activity recommendations for patients after surgery. Participants will be monitored after abdominal surgery to identify what activities help them breathe better and reduce complications after surgery.
In non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV), the interface is the primary determinant of success, as adherence and quality of therapy mainly depend on it. The aim of this study is to investigate the usefulness of a customised mask approach to minimise leakage and upper airway obstruction. It will focus on ventilator registries and changes in the way they can be corrected with these customised masks. The process involves 3D face scanning and dedicated computer-aided design. The processing and manufacturing of the masks is based on additive manufacturing through 3D printing.
A sub-nasal mask with a skirt that fits the nostrils and with a dedicated port for the nasogastric tube has recently been introduced. This interface has never been compared to nasal-oral masks. We hypothesise that such a sub-nasal mask increases comfort compared to a conventional naso-oral mask. The primary objective is to compare the comfort of the sub-nasal mask with that of a standard naso-oral mask.
Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome(OHS) is a disease characterized by daytime hypercapnia and sleep-disordered breathing without other causes of hypoventilation in individuals with a body mass index above 30 kg/m2. Sources state that obesity is at the basis of the metabolic changes seen in individuals with OHS. Obesity, together with cardiovascular system complications, lung volumes, work of breathing and sleep quality, creating the basis for respiratory problems. In addition, sedentary lifestyle habits, which are common in obese individuals, cause negative effects on exercise capacity and peripheral muscle strength. It has been shown in the literature that decreased exercise capacity due to obesity strongly interacts with the risk of all-cause mortality. As a result of obesity and all this negative picture, impaired emotional state and decreased quality of life are observed in individuals. Numerous studies have shown that obese individuals generally have a low level of physical activity, there is a decrease in peripheral muscle strength, obese individuals are at risk for sleep-related respiratory problems and health-related quality of life is often negatively affected in obese individuals. With these studies, the effects of obesity on individuals have been evaluated with objective evaluation methods. However, the same cannot be said for OHS. It is not clear how exercise capacity, peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters, which are known to be negatively affected by obesity, are affected in individuals with OHS. Based on this point, this study aims to investigate whether OHS has an additional effect on exercise capacity, peripheral muscle strength and quality of life in addition to obesity.
Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome(OHS) is characterized by daytime hypercapnia and sleep-disordered breathing without other causes of hypoventilation in individuals with a body mass index above 30 kg/m2. It is stated that obesity is at the basis of the metabolic changes seen in individuals diagnosed with OHS. Also sedentary lifestyle habits, which are common in obese individuals, cause the risk of sarcopenia due to loss of muscle strength and mass, accumulation of adipose tissue in the body, and decreased exercise capacity. Reduced exercise capacity due to obesity has been shown in the literature to strongly interact with mortality risk. As a result of obesity and all this negative picture, impaired emotional state and decreased quality of life are observed in individuals. Simultaneously, sleep parameters are also negatively affected. In particular, increased adipose tissue leads to loss of muscle mass and strength, increased risk of sarcopenia and sleep-related problems. The association of obesity and sarcopenia is referred to as 'sarcopenic obesity'. Sarcopenic obesity is defined as the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity. The concept of sarcopenic obesity has recently taken its place in the literature. In particular, there are very few studies on its relationship with sleep parameters. However, while obesity is the basis of OHS, there are no studies on the presence and effects of sarcopenic obesity in this patient group. Based on this point, we aim to investigate the effects of sarcopenic obesity on sleep parameters, exercise capacity and quality of life in individuals with OHS.
COVID-19 has significantly impacted sports globally, with event postponements, training disruptions, and wide-ranging concerns. SARS-CoV-2 infection can result in hyperinflammation and cardiopulmonary changes, with hypoxia as an aggravating sign. Hypoxia triggers complex immunometabolic mechanisms, including activation of HIF-1α and induction of HLA-G expression. Hypoxia training protocols benefit aerobic capacity and sports performance, with potential immunological impact. Studying immunometabolic markers in this context can improve athletic preparation and athletes' general health.
This study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental type in order to determine the effect of slow breathing exercise applied after the procedure on heart rate, blood pressure and quality of life in patients who underwent Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) I after the diagnosis of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Patients who underwent primary PCI due to STEMI in a Training and Research Hospital in Istanbul will constitute the study population. A sample will be formed with a total of 80 patients, 40 experimental and 40 control groups, selected by computer assisted simple randomization method among volunteer patients who underwent primary PCI and met the inclusion criteria. In this study, slow breathing exercise training will be given to the experimental group by the coordinator. In their home followmup after discharge, they will be asked to do slow breathing exercises for 10 minutes twice a day for eight weeks. Data will be collected using the "Patient Information Form", "MacNew Heart Disease Health Related Quality of Life Scale", "VAS Breath Therapy Satisfaction Evaluation Form", "Self-Monitoring Form" and "Patient Follow up Form". Patients will be seen again during the outpatient clinic examination in the fourth and eighth weeks and the effectiveness of slow breathing exercises will be evaluated with data collection forms.
The goal of this clinical trial is to clinically validate a system for the monitoring of patients' respiratory function and automated oxygen treatment proposal using non-invasive ventilation devices in the treatment of intensive care patients with acute or chronic lung diseases exacerbations. Participants clinical parameters will be monitored and samples will be sent to a clinical laboratory for analysis (arterial blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate will be continuously recorded, and FeO2 and CO2 will be measured with the help of an additional sensor).
