Overview
Brief Summary
To investigate the effects of resistant proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercises on physical fitness, respiratory muscle strength, walking distance and quality of life in chronic obstructive pulmonary patients.
Detailed Description
The study was carried out between January 2017 and January 2019, with patients followed up with the diagnosis of COPD in Çanakkale Mehmet Akif Ersoy State Hospital and Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Medical Faculty Hospital, Department of Chest Diseases. It was approved by Istanbul Medipol University Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee (Date: 30.12.2016, Decision No. 573) and was done in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. All participants were informed about the purpose of the study, the total duration of treatment and the applications to be made, and a consent form was signed. The study was conducted as a prospective and randomized controlled study, and inclusion and exclusion criteria were determined. Thirty-five patients diagnosed with COPD were referred to the study, four patients were excluded because they did not meet the inclusion criteria, and the study was conducted with a total of 31 participants. The 31 patients included in the study were randomized after their initial evaluation and divided into two groups as experimental and control groups. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria were divided into 2 groups. Randomized by ordering by date of application.
