Filter by:The effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and manual therapy approaches added to the IMT program in healthy individuals with hyperkyphosis is uncertain. This study was aimed to determine the effects of manual therapy techniques added to IMT and IMT on pulmonary functions (FVC, FEV1, FEV1 / FVC, and PEF), forward head posture, and hyperkyphosis in healthy individuals with hyperkyphosis. Thirty-five individuals voluntarily participate to study were randomly divided into IMT and manual therapy groups. While all participants received twenty minutes of IMT twice a week for four weeks, manual therapy techniques were applied to the manual therapy group in addition to IMT. Pulmonary functions, forward head posture, and hyperkyphosis were evaluated before and after the treatments with spirometry device; cervical range of joint range of motion measuring device (CROM Deluxe), C0-wall (OWD), and C7-wall distance measurement respectively. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 25.0) will be used to analyze the data in the research.
This study was designed to assess the bioequivalence between the test products (Albuterol Sulfate Inhalation Aerosol 108 mcg Per Actuation) and the reference products (Proair HFA [Albuterol Sulfate] Inhalation Aerosol 90 mcg Per Actuation) in healthy volunteers under fasting conditions. The test product was considered bioequivalent to the reference product if the T/R ln-transformed AUC(0-t), AUC(0-inf), and Cmax were within 80.00-125.00% of those of the reference.
Inspiratory muscle weakness, limited functional exercise capacity and worse quality of life have been shown in patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Recommendations from clinical practice guideline state that promoting pulmonary rehabilitation after exacerbation can improve the conditions above. Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) has been proven to enhance inspiratory muscle strength and endurance in patient with stable COPD. However, there is less research on whether IMT in addition to pulmonary rehabilitation after exacerbation can benefit inspiratory muscle function, functional exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with COPD. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of IMT in addition to pulmonary rehabilitation on respiratory muscle function, functional exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The purpose of this study is to look at the effect of using Mirtazapine to target a specific pathway in the body, that relies on a natural chemical the body produces called 'serotonin', in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) and non-injured persons during sleep. During this part of the study participants will be asked to take Mirtazapine (15mg per day) and a placebo in a random fashion, each for a one week period (drug period) of time followed by one week without drugs (washout period). The drugs will not be taken all at the same time, but each will be taken separately for one weeks followed by a night study to look at the effect the Mirtazapine/placebo pill has on the way the body responds during sleep.
The current study will investigate the tolerability and efficacy of inhaled Carragelose® versus saline in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. As SARS-CoV-2 replicates readily in the lung, it is planed to apply Carragelose® in an inhalative form. Hospitalized COVID-19 patients with respiratory symptoms will inhale Inhaleen for 5 days.
This pilot study is part of a phased approach to refine, optimize, and test the feasibility of CALM Breathing. Preliminary participant feedback from the Capnography-Assisted Respiratory Therapy (CART) study was applied to adapt and design CALM Breathing (including its dose, schedule, delivery, and home program). This pilot builds on initial lessons learned and identifies intervention areas still needing greater development to assure the success of a future large trial, targeting a subpopulation at risk, that is, those with COPD and anxiety sensitivity.
This is a single-center, exploratory positron emission tomography (PET) study of deposition, disposition and brain uptake [11C]nicotine when given to smokers as two different formulations via mybluTM e-cigarette system.
The study will examine the usability of a breathing platform in the home environment. It will be a randomized, open-label crossover study of 10 participants who will complete the CBT and breathing components in their home, prior to sleeping. Usability will be measured by scores assigned by participants. Qualitative feedback and compliance information will also be collected.
As an important non-drug intervention in the treatment of respiratory tract diseases, respiratory rehabilitation training is increasingly accepted in clinical practice. The purpose of pulmonary rehabilitation is not only to improve the physical and mental conditions of the patient, but also to help the patient return to the family and society more quickly. In light of the widely documented lung injuries associated with COVID-19, concerns are raised regarding the assessment of lung injury in discharged patients. As an important non-drug intervention in the treatment of respiratory diseases, respiratory rehabilitation training is increasingly being accepted in clinical practice The purpose of pulmonary rehabilitation is not only to improve the physical and mental conditions of the patient, but also to help the patient return to the family and society more quickly. The aim of the study; It is aimed to evaluate the efficiency of breathing exercise in individuals with COVID-19.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the prevalence of dysfunctional breathing in children and adolescents with asthma in a hospital outpatient clinic. Participants are invited to take the Nijmegen Questionnaire and the Asthma Control Questionnaire. The prevalence of dysfunctional breathing defined as NQ score >= 23 is calculated, and demographics are compared between children with and without dysfunctional breathing.
