Brief Summary

Effects of Incentive spirometry with and without Aerobic exercises on dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life in interstitial lung disease

Detailed Description

Interstitial lung disease is the large group of diseases most of which cause progressive scarring of lung tissue. The scarring associated with interstitial lung disease eventually affects participants ability to breathe and get enough oxygen into participants bloodstream. This is occurring by the long term work in dusty places or factories Randomized control trials will be conducted in DHQ hospital Layyah through the convent sampling techniques on patients which will be allocated through convenience sampling technique on 32 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A and group B. After the conventional treatment Group A will be treated with aerobic exercise and Group B will be treated without the aerobic exercise. In group A check the effect of spirometry with aerobic exercise (walking, jogging, running and cycling) and group B check the effect of spirometry without the aerobic exercise and dyspnea by using the 6 mint walk test, Borage scale, PFT, chest expansions and quality of life questionnaire. investigators apply the aerobic exercise by using the spirometer on the interstitial lung diseases patient and check the effectiveness of dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life of the patient. Data will be collect by the questioner and Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro - wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
incentive spirometry with aerobic exercises	incentive spirometer with aerobic exercises	Group A: Aerobic exercise (running, jugging, cycling, walking) will be given to the group A for the checking the effect of incentive spirometer * In sitting position, for the relaxation of body, patient will take a deep breath. * In sitting position, patient will sit on the chair, placed both feet on the floor while bending knee at 90 degree and use the incentive spirometer for the deep breath and check the volume of lung. * This schedule will be following supervised exercise training for a minimum 60 minutes 3 days a week in moderate patient,75 minutes in moderate to vigorous patients and 150 minutes in healthy patients * We will check the dyspnea of the patient by the borage scale * We will check the exercise capacity by the endurance training of respiratory muscles and use the 6 mint walk test * We will check the quality of life by the questionnaire.
incentive spirometry without aerobic exercises	incentive spirometry without aerobic exercises	Group B: In group B we will check the effects of incentive spirometer without the aerobic exercise. * In aerobic exercise following treatment protocol will be involve * In sitting position, for the relaxation of body, patient will take a deep breath. * In sitting position, patient will sit on the chair, placed both feet on the floor while bending knee at 90 degree and use the incentive spirometer for the deep breath and check the volume of lung. * We will check the dyspnea of the patient by the borage scale * We will check the exercise capacity by the endurance training of respiratory muscles and use the 6 mint walk test * We will check the quality of life by the questionnaire. * We will check the chest expansion by measuring tap.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The value of FEV1	6 weeks	Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working. The tests measure lung volume, capacity, rates of flow, and gas exchange. Spirometry the most common type of lung function test. It measures how much and how quickly you can move air in and out of your lungs. Measure the value of FEV1 in liters and in predicted% form. Normal FEV1 in male is3.5to 4.5 and in female is 2.5 to 3.25.
Borg scale	6 weeks	This scale use for the measurement of dyspnea (shortness of breath) Borg rating of perceived exertion (RPE) is an outcome measure scale used in knowing exercise intensity prescription. It is used in monitoring progress and mode of exercise in cardiac patients as well as in other patient populations undergoing rehabilitation and endurance training. According to the Borg scale maximum value is 9-10which shows the severe pain level in patient and the moderate pain value is 3-4 the minimum pain is values 1-2 .
FVC (force vital capacity)	6 weeks	Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working. The tests measure lung volume, capacity, rates of flow, and gas exchange. Spirometry the most common type of lung function test. It measures how much and how quickly you can move air in and out of your lungs. Measure the values of FVC (force vital capacity) in liters and in predicted % form . Normal value of FVC is 4.75 to 5.5 in male and 3.25 to3.75 in female.
Quality of life questioner	6 weeks	This questioner is use for measure of physical, psychological and emotional wellbeing life. The QOLQ is a validated and reliable questionnaire that measures an individual's physical, psychological, and social well-being. It consists of a set of questions that cover various aspects of quality of life, such as physical health, emotional well-being, social support, and overall satisfaction with life
6mint walk test	6 weeks	This test is performing for the measurement of aerobic capacity and endurance. The 6 Minute Walk Test is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess aerobic capacity and endurance. The distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used as the outcome by which to compare changes in performance capacity
chest expansion	6 weeks	In this test we use the measuring tape for the measurement of chest mobility. Chest expansion, defined as the difference in thoracic girth after maximum inspiration and maximum expiration, is one indicator of chest wall mobility. As it is measured using a measuring tape, it is a simple, inexpensive, and noninvasive tool for assessing chest mobility.
