Clinical Trial Summary

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition characterized by recurrent episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway (URI) during sleep. Objective: It was designed to compare the effects of aerobic and high-intensity interval training training on exercise capacity, fatigue, cognitive status, physical and disease-specific parameters in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Materials and Methods: It was designed as a randomized controlled experimental model. Patients between the ages of 18-55 who were diagnosed with OSAS by polysomnography by a specialist physician, and those with moderate (AHI: 16-30) and severe (AHI> 30) OSAS will be included. After the patients were selected from the relevant population with the improbable random sampling method, the patients who accepted to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria will be assigned to one of the aerobic exercise group, high-intensity interval training training group or control group with the closed-envelope method. Evaluations will be evaluated for each group before the first session of the exercise program and one day after the last session after they have completed the 8-week exercise program. Evaluation parameters; 6-minute walk test, fatigue severity scale, stroop test, skinfold, tape measure, comprehensive respiratory function test device (MasterScreen™ Body Plethysmography), Turkish version of the functional outcomes of the disease-specific quality of life sleep questionnaire (functional outcomes of sleep questionnaire, FOSQ,tr) The nottingham health profile includes the Epworth sleepiness scale. Conclusion: The effects of aerobic and high-intensity interval training training will be interpreted by comparing the evaluations before and after treatment and between groups.


Description:

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition characterized by recurrent episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway (URI) during sleep. It results in recurrent awakenings and episodic oxyhemoglobin desaturations due to decreased ventilation. Clinical manifestations of the disease are snoring, witnessed apnea, suffocation, night sweats, nocturnal arrhythmias, excessive daytime sleepiness, personality changes, morning headache, decreased decision-making ability, forgetfulness, anxiety, depression, cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, myocardial infarction, cardiac It encompasses a wide spectrum of insufficiency, metabolic dysfunction, and cor pulmonale. There are 3 main causes of upper respiratory tract obstruction. These are the tone of the pharyngeal muscles, negative pressure during inspiration and the anatomical structure of the URI. Pharyngeal obstruction plays the most important role. The pharynx can be thought of as a tube devoid of a bony roof, and its opening is determined by the balance between the forces in the closing direction (such as negative intraluminal pressure and externally compressing adipose tissue) and the dilator muscles.

Study Design


Intervention

Other:
Aerobic Exercise, High Intensity Interval Training
Aerobic exercise is a form of exercise done by consuming oxygen in order to give energy to the body. High Intensity Interval Training consists of low-intensity periods of active rest combined with short periods of intense exercise.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Pulmonary Function Tests Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and ratios will be used in statistical analysis.(FEV1/FVC) 8 week
Primary Exercise Capacity Exercise capacity will be evaluated with a 6-minute walk test. Evaluates the integrated responses of all systems involved during exercise, including the pulmonary and cardiovascular systems, blood, neuromuscular system, and muscle metabolism. 8 week
Secondary Fatigue It will be evaluated with the Fatigue Severity Scale. FSS is the most commonly used scale among the one-dimensional scales developed to assess fatigue. 8 week
Secondary Selective Attention The Stroop Test will be used to evaluate selective attention. 8 week
Secondary Disease-Specific quality of life Disease-Specific quality of life will be evaluated with Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire, FOSQ,tr). 8 week
Secondary General Health-Related Quality of Life Overall health-related quality of life will be assessed with the Nottingham Health Profile. 8 week
Secondary Daytime Sleepiness Epworth Sleepiness Scale will be used to measure the general sleepiness of the patients during the day. 8 week
