| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Respiratory muscle strength | Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) will be measured using a portable mouth pressure measuring device. | 1st day |
| Respiratory muscle strength | Maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) will be measured using a portable mouth pressure measuring device. | 1st day |
| Functional capacity | Will be evaluated with 6 minute walk test. | 1st day |
| Peripheral muscle strength | Knee extensor strength will be measured using a hand dynamometer. | 1st day |

| 1st day |
| Forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity | Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity will be recorded. | 1st day |
| Peak expiratory flow | Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Peak expiratory flow will be recorded. | 1st day |
| Forced mid-expiratory flow | Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Forced mid-expiratory flow (FEF25-75) will be recorded. | 1st day |
| Body composition | It will be evaluated by bioelectrical impedance analysis method. Percentage of fat and lean body mass wiil be recorded. | 1st day |
| Fragility | It will be assessed according to the criteria defined by Fried. The existence of 5 parameters is questioned here. These parameters are as follows: weight loss, weakness, fatigue, slowness, low physical activity. Those with 3 or more of the 5 identified components are classified as fragile. | 1st day |
