Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate opioid dose effects on the ability of the diaphragm muscle to generate higher force behaviors.
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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) and diaphragm shear-wave elastography (SWE) during state-of-the-art respiratory muscle testing including volitional efforts (e.g., maximal inspiratory pressure, maximal expiratory pressure, Valsalva maneuver), as well as maximal phrenic nerve stimulation.
Open surgery for esophageal cancer commonly involves large incisions in the chest, associated with a high rate of pulmonary complications (30-50%). Minimally invasive approach through keyhole surgery has been shown to reduce pulmonary infections by 20%. Enhanced recovery programmes are evidence-based protocols, developed to achieve early recovery after surgery with early mobilisation and chest physiotherapy and have been shown to reduce pulmonary complication rates as well. The investigators intend to objectively measure chest wall movement using 3D motion capture system as well as a wearable measurement system to monitor chest wall movement.
