Is it Possible to Use the Timed Performance Tests in Lung Transplantation

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Lung transplantation candidates will be performed a 3-month hospital-based preoperative exercise training. A 6-minute walk test, a 10-meter walking speed test and a 5-times sit to stand test will be performed to determine the exercise capacity of the patient. The tests will be carried out at the beginning and end of rehabilitation. At each testing session, the tests will be performed sequentially by the same physiotherapist, giving 20 minute rest periods within the same day. It will be analyzed how the test data correlate with each other and how the delta values calculated for each test reflect the rehabilitation outcomes calculated after the exercise program.

Clinical Trial Description

Severe exercise intolerance exists in lung transplant candidates. Completion of the test period in the field tests used in determining the exercise capacity of these patients is extremely difficult. The exercise capacity, which is considered as an important criterion in the decision of the lung transplant decision and in the determination of the clinical profile of the patient, necessitates the development of different test methods which are more suitable for the application of the measurement in this patient population.

In this study lung transplantation candidates will be performed a 3-month hospital-based preoperative exercise training. A 6-minute walk test, a 10-meter walking speed test and a 5-times sit to stand test will be performed to determine the exercise capacity of the patient. The tests will be carried out at the beginning and end of rehabilitation. At each testing session, the tests will be performed sequentially by the same physiotherapist, giving 20 minute rest periods within the same day. It will be analyzed how the test data correlate with each other and how the delta values calculated for each test reflect the rehabilitation outcomes calculated after the exercise program. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
