Effects of Energy Conservation Exercises Versus Circuit Training in Asthmatic Patients

Effects of Energy Conservation Exercises Versus Circuit Training on Dyspnea, Functional Capacity and Quality of Life in Asthmatic Patients

The aim of this study was to evaluate the Effects of energy conservation exercises versus circuit training on dyspnea, functional capacity and quality of life in asthmatic patients.

Asthma is a chronic lung disease characterized by airway inflammation and constriction, presents ongoing challenges despite advancements in treatment.The aim of this study is to found out the comparative effects of energy conservation techniques versus circuit training on dyspnea, functional capacity and quality of life in asthmatic patients. Method: This study will be conducted at "Doctors Hospital" Jhang, it is randomized clinical trial (RCT) which will divided into two groups: Group A include energy conservation techniques with the baseline exercise which is diaphragmatic exercise and Group B include circuit training along with baseline exercise. Total 32 subjects will be recruited according inclusion and exclusions criteria by convenient sampling technique. Data collection procedure will follow standardized procedures like pre-assessment and post-assessment which will be after 4 weeks with 6MWT, dyspnea borg scale, and STGeorge questionnaire. Hypothesis postulated that the one intervention will be more affected than the other. However, null hypothesis will suggest that there is no significant difference between the two interventions.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Subjects with asthma diagnosis grade according to FEV 60%-80%

Exclusion Criteria:

• Pregnancy
• Previous breathing exercise training
• Severe comorbidity
• Patients with short life expectancy
• subjects with Severe physical impairments
• Subjects with Mental disease
