• 1 other identifier: BronsTeleReh-1
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 35
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

It is to determine the effectiveness of pulmonary rehabilitation by telerehabilitation method in bronchiectasis patients. The cases meeting the inclusion criteria will be randomized and divided into two groups, the groups will be named as Telerehabilitation Exercise Group (TRGr) and Control Group (CGr).

Conditions

Bronchiectasis

Keywords

bronchiectasis; pulmonary rehabilitation; telerehabilitation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The exercise capacity

  The exercise capacity will be assessed by the incremental shuttle walking test.

  Change from baseline incremental shuttle walking distance at 8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (8)

• Forced vital capacity (FVC)

  Change from baseline FVC at 8 weeks

• Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)

  Change from baseline FEV1 at 8 weeks

• Respiratory muscle strength

  Change from baseline respiratory muscle strength at 8 weeks

• Peripheral muscle strength

  Change from baseline peripheral muscle strength at 8 weeks

• Perception of dyspnea

  Change from baseline dyspnea perception at 8 weeks

Telerehabilitation Exercise Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Other: Telerehabilitation exercise program

Control Group

OTHER

Other: Control program

Interventions

Telerehabilitation exercise program OTHER

TRGr will be given online exercises, synchronized 3 days a week, accompanied by a physiotherapist, via videoconference on the group smartphone.

Telerehabilitation Exercise Group

Control program OTHER

KGr will be a pulmonary rehabilitation information brochure will be given after the initial evaluation. They will be asked to do the exercises on the brochure.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Aged 18 and over
• Diagnosed with bronchiectasis by HRCT
• Stable clinical state at the time of admission without infection or exacerbation in the previous 3 weeks
• Know how to use technological devices

You may not qualify if:

• A history of effort-related syncope or any comorbidity (such as severe orthopedic or neurological deficits or unstable heart disease) that precludes exercise training
• Patients with systemic diseases other than bronchiectasis that also affect the lungs, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, infection, interstitial lung disease, lung cancer, heart and kidney failure, which will cause shortness of breath
• Having balance problems that prevent them from doing exercises
• Participation in a pulmonary rehabilitation program within the past 12 months
