Brief Summary

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

In this study, it was aimed to examine the effects of aerobic exercise and balance-proprioception exercises on pain, functionality and strength parameters of fibromyalgia patients and to compare the two exercise types.

Detailed Description

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

In the study planned to evaluate the effect of aerobic and balance-proprioception exercises on the symptoms of the disease and the superiority of the two exercise models in patients with fibromyalgia syndrom (FMS), 62 women who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly divided into two groups. Aerobic exercise group (n = 26) and balance-proprioception exercise group (n = 26) will be applied for 3 weeks a week, 6 days a week under the supervision of a physiotherapist in the exercise laboratory of the Istanbul Medical Faculty Sports Medicine Department. Pain (VAS), functional status (FİQ) and knee extension muscle strength (Cybex isokinetic dynamometer) will be evaluated before and after the program. Cognitive status will be evaluated with standardized Mini Mental Test only before the program.
