Study: NCT06756633

Intervention type: OTHER
Intervention: Structured light plethysmography
Description: Participants' thoracoabdominal movements will be assessed using the PneumoCare device that measures with the SLP technique. The evaluation begins with positioning participants wearing a white tank top, t-shirt, or with a bare chest. In our study, measurements will be taken with participants seated, supported by their backs, and their chest area exposed. The participant's age, height, and weight information are entered into the system. After the participant is positioned, the lights of the SLP measuring device are set up 90-100 cm away to encompass the chest area. The light field, which is in a checkerboard pattern, rectangular or square, should align its upper edge with the participant's clavicles and its lower edge with the anterior-superior iliac spine. During this measurement, the participant is asked to look straight ahead and breathe normally for five minutes. At the end of the measurement, the three-dimensional movements of the chest and respiratory parameters are recorded.

Intervention: 6 Minute Walking Test
Description: For Ambulatory Participants:~Exercise capacity will be assessed using the Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). The test will be performed according to ATS/ERS guidelines . The test involves walking for six minutes at a submaximal level in a 20-meter corridor. Blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and dyspnea, general fatigue, and leg fatigue according to the Modified BORG Scale (MBS) will be assessed before and after the test. Participants can stop and rest during the test. In such cases, the test duration is paused, and the rest time is recorded, then the test resumes from where it was left off. The distance walked in meters at the end of the test is recorded.

Intervention: 6-Minute Peg Board Ring Test
Description: For Non-Ambulatory Participants:~The 6-Minute Pegboard Ring Test will be used to assess upper extremity exercise capacity . Pre- and post-test evaluations of heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and MBS for dyspnea and fatigue will be made. The board used for the test has a total of 6 holes spaced 10 cm apart horizontally and another set of 6 holes 20 cm below aligned with the top row. There are four 20 cm long iron rods suitable for the holes. A total of 20 rings suitable for the iron rods will be used. The iron rods will be placed in the designated holes according to the patients' shoulder width. An adjustable chair will be used to suit the patients' heights, and the distance between the chair and the board will be adjusted according to arm length. Patients will be asked to place the rings from top to bottom and bottom to top with both hands simultaneously. The total number of rings placed in six minutes will be recorded in units.
