About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a key element in the management of people with chronic respiratory disease. A properly followed supervised physical training program in sarcoidosis is safe and has no absolute contraindications. Fatigue can also be associated with sarcoidosis for different reasons. Individualized rehabilitation training can improve the symptoms of patients with sarcoidosis. There is no study in the literature investigating the effectiveness of one-legged exercises that reduce peripheral muscle use, in patients with sarcoidosis. In our study, these two exercise methods will be compared by applying one-legged exercise training and two-legged exercise training. The effect of one-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in sarcoidosis patients will be examined. The primary aim of our study is to compare the effects of one-legged exercise training, which is a current exercise approach, and two-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in patients with sarcoidosis. The secondary aim is to examine the effect of this exercise training on peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters.
The 2 groups in the trial
- One-legged cycling ergometer trainingTreatment being tested

Treatment: Exercise- One-Legged
- Two-legged cycling ergometer trainingExisting treatment, for comparison
Two-legged cycling ergometer training; 20 minutes for the first 2 weeks, 30 minutes of cycling training in the following weeks.
Treatment: Exercise-Two-Legged
