Assessment of the Impact of Body Position on Diaphragmatic Excursion in Obese Patients to Improve Proactice in Respiratory Kinesitherapy
- Conditions
- Obesity
- Interventions
- Other: Measurement of the diaphragmatic excursion according to the position of the body by ultrasound
- Registration Number
- NCT05372250
- Lead Sponsor
- Central Hospital, Nancy, France
- Brief Summary
The EXDECHO study is the first randomized study evaluating the effect of four body positions on diaphragmatic excursion in obese patients by ultrasound.
The investigators suppose that the course of the right diaphragmatic hemicupola would be increased by an increasingly horizontal position (gradual increase in the diaphragmatic excursion from standing to lying down).
If this hypothesis is confirmed, kinesitherapists will have more informed positioning choices to improve the effectiveness of respiratory rehabilitation.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Diaphragmatic excursion in centimeters in the 4 positions measured by ultrasound Day 0
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Correlation between measurement of diaphragmatic excursion in centimeters by ultrasound and waist circumference in centimeters. Day 0 Correlation between measurement of diaphragmatic excursion in centimeters by ultrasound and BMI in kg/m². Weight in kilograms and height in meters will be combined to report BMI in kg/m². Day 0 Correlation between measurement of diaphragmatic excursion in centimeters by ultrasound and sex of the participant (male/female). Day 0 Correlation between measurement of diaphragmatic excursion in centimeters by ultrasound and weight in kilograms. Day 0 Comfort of the ultrasound examination felt by the patient via a questionnaire Day 0 Positions, duration of the examination, pressure exerted by the probe: score from 0 (unpleasant) to 4 (acceptable)
