Evaluating Throcal Expansion, Dispne Severity, Kardiorespiratuar Endurance and Quality Of Life Women with Obesity Neslihan Durutürk, Zuhal Gültekin, Elif Kaymakoğlu, Mustafa Eraslan Baskent University, Health Science Faculty, Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Department
Obesity is; • Increasingly becomes a challenge in developed countries and as well as developing countries. Obesity incidence in Turkey % 15-16 Women % 40 Man % 20
Obesity, • Unfavorably affects respiratory system Produces undesired alteration in; • Respiratory mechanics • Respiratory muscle strength • Endurans • Respiratory control • Exersice capasity
OBESITY Diyabetes mellitus Risk factors Hipertension Dislipidemi Coronary artery diseases
Purpose In this study throcal expansion, dispne severity, cardiorespiratory endurance and quality of life of women were evaluated in women with obesity.
Materials and Methods:Table 1: Mean Age and Body Mass Index of Groups • In two groups, cases who have orthopedic diseases and systemic diseases that interfere to exercise not included to the study
Thoracal expansion; • Axillar • Epigastric • Subcostal, chest circumferences measurements
Cardiorespiratory endurance; • 6 minutes walk test (6MWT) Percieved exertion • Modified Borg scale
Quality of life; • Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) which has subscales about energy level, pain, physical function, sleep, emotional response and social isolation Dispnea severity; • Medical Research Council Dispne Scale (MRCDS)
ResultsTable 2: 6 Minutes Walk Test Results of Groups * : p < 0.05
Table 3: Comparing NHP Results Of Groups * : p < 0.05
Table 4: Comparing Thoracal Expansion and Dispne Scores of Groups
Conclusion In our study it has been seen that; • Obesity decreases cardiorespiratory endurance • Unfavorably effects sleep subscales of quality of life mesurement in women. • We think that it has to be carried out more extensive studies with more cases in the future.
