简要总结
Our aim in this study is to investigate the effects of conscious connected breathing exercises on sexual function, sleep, and mood in fibromyalgia patients. The investigators want to clearly show how breathing exercises affect sexual function, sleep, and mood in fibromyalgia patients by comparing the results from the control and study groups before and immediately after the sessions. By experiencing and learning breathing sessions, participants can do it on their own, wherever they want, without the need for a specific tool or examination, and change their lifestyle.
详细描述
Natural CCB sessions were conducted 3 times monthly (every Monday) for approximately 1.5 hours from 16:30 to 18:00 pm by qualified breathing coach (GU). Volunteer participants were recruited randomly. Initially, they were apprised of the study's objectives and methodologies. Secondly, a researcher (GYO) gathered sociodemographic data to ascertain admission criteria. Demographic information, including the duration of follow-up since the diagnosis of FMS, chronic disease history, medications utilized, age, body mass index, and marital status, will be solicited and documented. Participants completed the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Jenkins Sleep Rating Scale (JSS) and Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). The assessments will be administered again to the same participants following three sessions. The results of the pre- and post-surveys will be compared. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare the scores before and after the breathing exercises and evaluate the differences between the groups (study and controls). The control group consists of women diagnosed with fibromyalgia who did not participate in breathing sessions.

结局指标
主要结局
Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ)
时间窗: comparision of scales before and immediately breathing exercises among groups
The assessments will be administered again to the same participants following three sessions. The results of the pre- and post-surveys will be compared. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare the scores before and immediately after the breathing exercises and evaluate the differences between the groups (study and controls). The control group consists of women diagnosed with fibromyalgia who did not participate in breathing sessions.FIQ is to assess the effects of fibromyalgia. The questionnaire comprises ten principal inquiries. The maximum attainable score is 100, signifying a more severe clinical condition as value rise.
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
时间窗: comparision of scales before and immediately breathing exercises among groups
The assessments will be administered again to the same participants following three sessions. The results of the pre- and post-surveys will be compared. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare the scores before and immediately after the breathing exercises and evaluate the differences between the groups (study and controls). The control group consists of women diagnosed with fibromyalgia who did not participate in breathing sessions. The HADS consists of two subscales that evaluate both anxiety and depression. The scale typically consists of 14 items, divided equally into seven questions for the anxiety subscale and seven for the depression subscale. Each question pertains to a distinct emotional condition and allows patients to assess the emotional states they have encountered during a specified timeframe (usually within the last week).
Jenkins Sleep Rating Scale (JSS)
时间窗: comparision of scales before and immediately breathing exercises among groups
The assessments will be administered again to the same participants following three sessions. The results of the pre- and post-surveys will be compared. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare the scores before and immediately after the breathing exercises and evaluate the differences between the groups (study and controls). The control group consists of women diagnosed with fibromyalgia who did not participate in breathing sessions. The Jenkins Sleep Rating Scale (JSS), a measurement instrument for evaluating sleep disturbances. The questionnaire assessed issues such as "difficulty falling asleep, waking up several times during the night, not being able to sleep without waking up during the night, feeling tired and exhausted after waking up during a normal sleep period."
Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)
时间窗: comparision of scales before and immediately breathing exercises among groups
The assessments will be administered again to the same participants following three sessions. The results of the pre- and post-surveys will be compared. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare the scores before and immediately after the breathing exercises and evaluate the differences between the groups (study and controls). The control group consists of women diagnosed with fibromyalgia who did not participate in breathing sessions. FSFI higher score means better sexual function (maximum score 36).
