Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The effect of comprehensive respiratory physiotherapy applications on respiratory function, functional capacity and peripheral muscle strength in children with cystic fibrosis and non-cystic fibrosis will be compared.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Bronchiectasis may be a congenital cause such as cystic fibrosis (CF) or non-cystic fibrosis such as primary ciliary dyskinesia, post-infectious conditions, aspiration and immunodeficiency; It is a disease characterized by irreversible dilatation of airways. Symptoms; purulent sputum production, chronic cough, hemoptysis, recurrent fever and pleurisy. Mucociliary clearance disorder secondary to inflammation and involvement of exocrine glands in CF plays a major role in the development of symptoms; In non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB), the development of similar symptoms may occur regardless of these reasons. However, in the examinations of CF, proximal airways; In NCFB, distal airways have been affected more intensively. As part of pulmonary rehabilitation, comprehensive respiratory physiotherapy (CRP) has an important role in the treatment and management of bronchiectasis. Airway cleaning techniques, approaches to reducing respiratory work, and patient education form the basis of CRP and play an active role in the treatment and management of the disease. In the literature, there are studies in which the effects of CRP are given in both CF and NCFB patients and studies comparing evaluation results in both groups without treatment. However, no study was found to compare the efficacy of CRP in these two groups of diseases. Therefore, in this study, the investigators aimed to investigate the differences between the efficacy of CRP among the groups in children with CF and NCFB.
