NCT04791072

Brief Summary

Respiratory exercise training and aerobic exercise training will be given to patients who have been hospitalized in intensive care due to COVID 19 and underwent IMV, who were hospitalized in the service and underwent NIMV or high-flow oxygen inhalation, and whose respiratory symptoms persist after discharge. The patients in the study group will be called by phone once a week and a motivating conversation will be made. No control will be made to the control group. Before and after the training, 6-minute walking test, MRC dyspnea scale, SGRQ quality of life questionnaire and hospital anxiety depression scale will be applied.

Study Arms (2)

Telecoaching group

EXPERIMENTAL

They will be given breathing exercise training and will be asked to do it every day for 8 weeks. In addition to breathing exercises, the use of incentive spirometry and aerobic exercise training will be provided. They will be asked to do breathing exercises, use of incentive spirometry and strengthening exercises for at least 20 minutes every day and 5 times a week. They will be called by phone once a week and encouraging speeches will be made.

Other: Exercise
