Brief Summary

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

The aim of our study is to determine the effects of different exercise capacity tests on intercostal muscle oxygenation and to reveal the effect of changing accessory respiratory muscle oxygenation on exercise test success.

Detailed Description

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

In the study, intercostal muscle oxygenation will be measured in different exercise capacity tests. A total of 32 healthy young women and men between the ages of 18-25 who meet the inclusion criteria and voluntarily agree to participate in the study will be included in the study. The cases will be randomized into 2 groups: Six minute walking test group and incremental shuttle walking test group. Heart rate, oxygen saturation, and fatigue levels will be measured with the modified Borg scale before and after the tests. During the tests, oxygen levels of the intercostal muscles will be monitored with the MOXY device. After sufficient wash out time, the groups will be crossed and different exercise tests will be applied to the cases. The result of our study will provide information about the use of intercostal muscles during different exercise tests. As a result of the study, results that can be interpreted for patient groups with circulatory system, respiratory system and physical limitations will be obtained.

Healthy subjects

Six Minute Walking Test

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

It is applied in a 30 m long corridor in an indoor environment, and the distance walked by the patient in a six-minute period, oxygen saturation, heart rate, and change in dyspnea are recorded. For this, before starting the test, oxygen saturation, heart rate, arterial blood pressure and dyspnea level according to the Borg scale are recorded. The same parameters are measured again at the end of the test. The feature of this test is that the person walks at his own pace, stopping when necessary and allowing the use of oxygen. It is an exercise test that is easy to perform and well tolerated.

Shuttle walking test

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Shuttle walking test at increasing speed is an exercise test in which walk between two cones 10 m apart at an increasing speed throughout the test and each 10-meter journey between the two cones is counted as a shuttle.
