No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Severe exercise intolerance and shortness of breath are present in lung transplant candidates. Clinical features that reveal these symptoms in terminal period lung patients vary and are unclear. The effect of peripheral muscle strength on exercise capacity and dyspnea will be examined in our study.

Conditions

  • Lung Transplantation
  • Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Interventions

OTHER

Pulmonary rehabilitation

A 6-min walk test, peripheral and respiratory muscle strength measurements, and a dyspnea rating scale Mmrc will be applied to the lung transplantation candidates who are trained in 3-month hospital-based preoperative exercise training in the Pulmonary Rehabilitation unit. The tests will be carried out at the beginning and end of rehabilitation.
