Overview

Effects of Incentive spirometry with and without Aerobic exercises on dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life in interstitial lung disease

Description

Interstitial lung disease is the large group of diseases most of which cause progressive scarring of lung tissue. The scarring associated with interstitial lung disease eventually affects participants ability to breathe and get enough oxygen into participants bloodstream. This is occurring by the long term work in dusty places or factories Randomized control trials will be conducted in DHQ hospital Layyah through the convent sampling techniques on patients which will be allocated through convenience sampling technique on 32 patients which will be allocated through simple random sampling through sealed opaque enveloped into group A and group B. After the conventional treatment Group A will be treated with aerobic exercise and Group B will be treated without the aerobic exercise. In group A check the effect of spirometry with aerobic exercise (walking, jogging, running and cycling) and group B check the effect of spirometry without the aerobic exercise and dyspnea by using the 6 mint walk test, Borage scale, PFT, chest expansions and quality of life questionnaire. investigators apply the aerobic exercise by using the spirometer on the interstitial lung diseases patient and check the effectiveness of dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life of the patient. Data will be collect by the questioner and Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 21. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro - wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.
