简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of postural exercise program added to pulmonary rehabilitation program on quality of life, exercise tolerance and postural stability in children with Cystic Fibrosis.
详细描述
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive, multisystem involvement disease. The most important cause of mortality in CF is pulmonary complications. Prevention of pulmonary complications is only possible with pulmonary rehabilitation. Pulmonary rehabilitation methods used in CF are called airway cleaning techniques that include postural drainage, breathing techniques and use of devices. These techniques have not been proven to be superior to each other. Active cycle of breathing techniques (ACBT) is one of the breathing techniques used to remove secretions from the lungs.
Pulmonary disease progression in CF causes postural impairment and decrease of exercise tolerance, which can reduce effectiveness of pulmonary rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of postural exercise program added to pulmonary rehabilitation program on quality of life, exercise tolerance and postural stability in children with CF.

结局指标
主要结局
Exercise Tolerance
时间窗: 6 months
Modified Shuttle Test (MST) is used to measure the exercise tolerance. The patient is asked to walk until feeling tired between two fixed objects with a 10-meter interval, starting at normal walking speed and increasing the speed at the beginning of each minute. Maximum distance (meters) is measured for the test.
