简要总结
Number of Patients:
Study group - Bronchiectasis that is not attributable to Cystic fibrosis
- Group 1 - Pulmonary Rehabilitation
- Group 2 - Standard care
Sample size - 20 in each arm
Study Design:
- Randomised controlled trial (RCT)
All patients who qualify for the study will undergo a detailed evaluation. Baseline assessment will include the following parameters:
- Anthropometry
- Pulmonary Function Tests and Respiratory muscle strength
- Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)
- Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT)
- Severity of dyspnoea (Dyspnoea scale)
- Limb muscle strength
- Inflammatory markers in the serum - C-reactive protein
- Quality of Life
Patients will then be randomized (using table of random numbers) to either the pulmonary rehabilitation group or the standard arm group. After 8 weeks of pulmonary rehabilitation, patients will again be reassessed by the aforementioned tools.
