- Registration Number
- NCT06006520
- Lead Sponsor
- Uskudar University
- Brief Summary
the investigators aim in this study is to investigate the effects of aerobic and oropharyngeal exercises on sleep quality in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS).
- Detailed Description
The study will be conducted in a randomized controlled manner. Participants will be divided into groups of 3 equal numbers using the simple randomization method. The control group will not be given exercise. The first intervention group will be given 10-15 minutes of oropharyngeal exercises. In addition to oropharyngeal exercises, the second intervention group will be given 50 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise at least 3 days a week. Both intervention groups will apply the given exercise program for 8 weeks. All participants will be evaluated 3 times in total, at the beginning of the treatment, at the 4th week and at the 8th week. Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire, Fatigue Severity Scale, Berlin Questionnaire, 6-minute walk test, Modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) Dyspnea Scale, Functional Results of Sleep Scale (FOSQ) tests will be applied to the participants. Pre- and post-intervention data were statistically analyzed and compared.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Functional Outcomes of Sleep Scale (FOSQ) 10 weeks It is a test used to evaluate the physical, social and mental effects of excessive daytime sleepiness on daily life activities. In the Turkish version of the FOSQ, questions about sexual activities are excluded and it consists of 26 questions. Each question is evaluated as no difficulty, mild, moderate, extreme and scored between 0-4 points. Calculation of low scores in total indicates functional disability. Turkish validity and reliability have been demonstrated.
Epworth Sleepiness Scale 10 weeks It is used to measure the general sleepiness of people during the day. In Epworth Sleepiness Scale, 4 ratings are made for a total of 8 questions. The total score was 24, and more than 10 points were considered as daytime sleepiness.
Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Survey 10 weeks The scale includes a total of 24 questions. 19 of these questions are self-evaluation questions, and 5 of them are answered by the individual's spouse or a roommate. These 5 questions are used for clinical information only and are not included in the scoring. The scale questions that determine sleep quality include various factors related to sleep quality. These questions are to determine sleep duration, sleep latency, and the frequency and severity of specific sleep-related problems; 18 items were grouped as 7 component scores. The total score ranges from 0 to 21. A high total score indicates poor sleep quality. The scale does not indicate the presence of sleep disorders or the prevalence of sleep disorders. However, it is stated that a total score of 5 and above indicates poor sleep quality.
Fatigue Severity Scale 10 weeks The person indicates how much he or she agrees with each item by choosing numbers from 1 to 7. 1 means completely disagree, 7 means completely agree. The score range of the scale, which consists of 9 questions in total, is 9-63. A score of 36 or higher indicates severe fatigue.
Berlin Survey 10 weeks It is a questionnaire consisting of questions about snoring, daytime sleepiness, and high blood pressure, which have been shown to be risk factors for sleep apnea in previous sleep studies. Presence of snoring more than 3-4 times a week, presence of witnessed sleep apnea, daytime sleepiness more than 3-4 times a week and presence of at least two of the conditions were considered risky for sleep apnea syndrome.
