简要总结
Gaining a greater understanding of how the breathing exercise combined with aerobic and strengthening exercises will affects lung function and quality of life in post covid-19 persons
详细描述
this will improve exercise prescription guidelines relevant to this post covid-19. Therefore, the purpose of this work was determining the effect of breathing exercise combined with aerobic and strengthening exercises in improve chest expansion, lung function and quality of life in post covid-19 persons.

研究组 & 干预措施
study group
Will receive diaphragmatic breathing with pursed lips as (breathing exercise), They will instruct to perform 3 different conditions will be registered: (1) 6 min of quiet breathing (3 sets of 2 min each), defined as spontaneous breathing pattern; (2) 6 min of diaphragmatic breathing (3 sets of 2 min each); and (3) 6 min of diaphragmatic breathing plus pursed-lips breathing (3 sets of 2 min each).
For aerobic exercises: Will include the following exercises: walking, cycling, running and intermittent running. The exercises will perform for 18-60 minutes for 1-2 sets per week.
For resistance exercises: Will include the following 8 exercises: shoulder press, biceps curl, triceps curl, bench press, leg squats, leg press, leg curl and toe raise. The exercises will perform for 60 minutes for 2-3 sets per week.
干预措施: breathing exercise, Aerobic exercises (Other)
control group
not receiving any exercises
结局指标
主要结局
Health-related quality of life, Medical Outcomes Study short-form (SF-36)
时间窗: after 6 weeks
assessed using the Short Form-36 (SF-36). The SF-36 scale had 8 dimensions, and each dimension was converted into a percentage score.
Respiratory function measurement
时间窗: after 6 weeks
assessed by a spirometer. The following parameters related to respiratory function will be measured: (1) forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1); (2) forced vital capacity (FVC).
Health-related quality of life, Medical Outcomes Study short-form (SF-36)
时间窗: at baseline
assessed using the Short Form-36 (SF-36). The SF-36 scale had 8 dimensions, and each dimension was converted into a percentage score.
Respiratory function measurement
时间窗: at baseline
assessed by a spirometer. The following parameters related to respiratory function will be measured: (1) forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1); (2) forced vital capacity (FVC).
