Summary

The aim is to evaluate exercise capacity, respiratory functions, respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, inspiratory muscle endurance, physical activity level, quality of life, fatigue, dyspnea, anxiety, depression and investigate the impact of 24-session pulmonary rehabilitation training on these parameters in patients with chronic fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

Conditions

  • Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
  • Extrinsic Allergic Alveolitis

Interventions

OTHER

Pulmonary Rehabilitation

All exercise program will be applied during supervised session by a physiotherapist. Range of maximal heart rate will be screened by heart rate monitor during supervised session. Training group will receive upper extremity aerobic exercise training using arm ergometer at 60-80% of maximal heart rate (dyspnea perception at 3-4 level as well as fatigue perception at 5-6 level according to Modified Borg Scale). Inspiratory muscle training (Powerbreathe® Wellness-Inspiratory Muscle Trainer) at 50-60% of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and progressive resistance training at 30-60% of 1 RM (using proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques (flexion, abduction, external rotation/extension, adduction, internal rotation) for upper extremity resistance training; using sandback for knee extensors) will be performed during 24 sessions (3 day/week; 8 weeks)

OTHER

Alternative Exercises

Control group will receive alternative upper extremity exercises combined with breathing exercises. Control group will perform alternative upper extremity exercises combined with breathing exercises during 3 days/week, for 8 weeks
