Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Conditions
Brief summary
Study was planned to investigate the effect of pranayama on dyspnea, daytime sleepiness, cognitive function, quality of life, activities of daily living, functional exercise capacity, physical activity level, sleep quality, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, depression and anxiety in OSAS.
Detailed description
Thirty-four OSAS patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be randomized into 2 groups as pranayama and control groups. The pranayama group will practice pranayama on their own for 8 weeks, 7 days a week, 3 times a day for 15 minutes. In addition, he will perform a single 15-minute session 3 days a week online under the supervision of a physiotherapist. The control group will not receive any intervention. Dyspnea sensation before and after the training Modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale, daytime sleepiness Epworth Sleepiness Scale, cognitive function Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale, quality of life Short Form-36, Turkish Adaptation of Nottingham Health Profile Questionnaire and Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire, activities of daily living London Chest Activities of Daily Living Scale, functional exercise capacity 30 seconds sit and stand test, physical activity level International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form, sleep quality Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, fatigue status Fatigue Severity Scale, depression and anxiety Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, musculoskeletal system pain will be assessed with the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire.
Interventions
Ujjayi pranayama:It is a pranayamic application that is performed by slightly twisting the throat and breathing through the nose. Nadi shodhana pranayama is breathing alternately through the right and left nostrils.Sukha pranayama is inhaled through the nose for 5 seconds, then given through the nose for 5 seconds. Thus, 6 times of inspiration and expiration is done per minute.
