NCT04930068 | Unknown DMC

• 1 other identifier: Cairo Un112
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 40
• Locations: 1 country

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of ultrasonic cavitation on abdominal obesity in females. Fifty volunteer females with abdominal obesity participated in the study.

Conditions

Ultrasonic

Keywords

Ultrasonic; aerobic exercise; Diet

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Bioelectrical impedance analysis

  was used to estimate body composition, in particular body fat and muscle mass, where a weak electric current flows through the body and the voltage is measured in order to calculate impedance (resistance) of the body. Most body water is stored in muscle in both groups A and B

  6 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• skin fold caliper

  6 weeks

Study Arms (2)

ultra-sound

EXPERIMENTAL

ultrasonic cavitation applied on abdominal region for 30 minutes, 2 times per week for 6 weeks.

Other: low caloric diet

aerobic exercise

EXPERIMENTAL

aerobic exercises through treadmill (60-70% of VO2 max.) for 30 minutes, 2 times per week for 6 weeks

Other: low caloric diet

Interventions

low caloric diet OTHER

A low-calorie diet is a structured eating plan that restricts daily caloric intake, commonly for weight loss. Following a low-calorie diet typically means consuming around 1,200 to 1,500 calories per day, which creates a calorie deficit that can lead to weight loss. A low-calorie diet can be effective, but it requires a lot of discipline to work and be safe.
