Assessment of Factors That Affected Respiratory Parameters in Mucopolysaccharidoses Patients

Completed
Conditions
Mucopolysaccharidoses
Registration Number
NCT04491747
Lead Sponsor
Hacettepe University
Brief Summary

Respiratory system affects in mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) disease. Respiratory system symptoms are seen in almost every MPS patients and respiratory failure is one of the most common causes of death in this population. The aim of the study was to evaluate respiratory muscle strength and endurance, cough effectiveness and functional capacity in MPS patients and to defined the factors that affected the respiratory problem in this.

Detailed Description

This study was participated MPS patients. Patients' pulmonary function test, functional capacity, respiratory muscle strength and endurance, peak cough flow was assessed and recorded.

Pulmonary function test was assessed with spirometry, functional capacity was evaluated with 3-minute step test and six minute walk test (MWT). Respiratory muscle strength was evaluated mouth pressure measurement (MIP- maximal inspiratory pressure and MEP- maximal expiratory pressure) and Sniff nasal inspiratory pressure (SNIP). Respiratory muscle endurance was assessed Powerbreathe. And cough effectiveness was evaluated peak cough flow.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
functional capacity15 minutes

Six minute walk test: Distance walked in six minute was recorded

3 minute step test5 minutes

number of completed step in 3 minute was recorded

Respiratory muscle strength assessment15 minutes

Respiratory muscle strength was evaluated by measuring maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) and sniff nasal inspiratory pressure(SNIP). Also dynamic inspiratory muscle strength was evaluated Powerbreathe K5 device.

Respiratory muscle endurance10 minutes

Pressure time unit: A constant load test was used to evaluate respiratory muscle endurance. Using a PowerBreathe device (HaB International Ltd., Southam, UK), the participants were asked to breathe maintaining a constant threshold (60% of MIP) until task failure, and the test duration was recorded. Results were obtained by multiplying the set pressure by the test duration

Pulmonary functions15 minutes

PEF (peak expiratory flow) assessment via spirometry

MVV (Maximal ventilatory assesssment)5 minutes

Maximize ventilation by inhaling and exhaling as quickly and deeply as possible for 15 s via spirometry

cough effectiveness5 minutes

cough effectiveness assessment was evaluated peak cough flow meter.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
heart rate6 minutes

difference pre and post test heart beat number

oxygen saturation6 minutes

difference pre and post test percentage of oxygen saturation
