Brief Summary

Kinesiophobia and Physical Fitness, and Related Factors in Liver Transplantation

Conditions

Liver Transplant Disorder

Keywords

liver transplantation; functional capacity; kinesiophobia; balance; physical fitness; physical activity; muscle strength

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

• Physical Fitness

  The Chair Stand Test: This requires people to repeatedly stand up from and sit down on a chair for 30 seconds. The number of stands is recorded.

  10 minutes

• Physical Fitness

  The Biceps Curl Test: This requires people to repeatedly lift a 5 lb(2.27 kg) weight (for women) or an 8 lb (3.63 kg) weight (for men) for 30 seconds. The number of lifts is recorded.

  10 minutes

• Physical Fitness

  The 6-minute Walk Test: This is measured in distance (m) and reflects aerobic endurance. The original version of the Senior Fitness Test required people to walk on a straight line.

  30 minutes

• Physical Fitness

  The Chair Sit and Reach Test: This is measured in distance (cm) and reflects lower body flexibility.

  5 minutes

• Physical Fitness

  The Back Scratch Test: This is measured in distance (cm) and reflects upper body flexibility.

  5 minutes

• Physical Fitness

  The 8-Foot Up-and-Go test: This is measured in time (seconds) and reflects agility and dynamic balance.

  10 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Kinesiophobia

  15 minutes

• Balance

  20 minutes

• Balance

  15 minutes

Study Arms (2)

Liver Transplantation

Sixteen individuals with liver transplantation were included in the study, and their physical and demographic characteristics of the individuals recorded. The Senior Fitness Test (SFT) was used to evaluate to physical fitness. The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK) was used to assess kinesiophobia; the Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS) and Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) to evaluate fatigue; the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and the Timed Up and Go test (TUG) to evaluate the balance; the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) to determine the level of physical activity;and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to evaluate psychological status.

Other: Assessment of: 1. Functional Capacity 2. Physical Fitness 3. Physical Activity Level 4. Balance 5. Kinesiophobia 6. Psychological Status 7. Fatigue Severity

Healthy Subjects

Sixteen age- and sex-matched healthy subjects were included in the study.

Other: Assessment of: 1. Functional Capacity 2. Physical Fitness 3. Physical Activity Level 4. Balance 5. Kinesiophobia 6. Psychological Status 7. Fatigue Severity

Interventions

Assessment of: 1. Functional Capacity 2. Physical Fitness 3. Physical Activity Level 4. Balance 5. Kinesiophobia 6. Psychological Status 7. Fatigue Severity OTHER
