About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition characterized by a deterioration in respiratory function and an increase in the activity of accessory respiratory muscles. This condition can affect patients' use of their upper extremities during daily living activities. In this context, our study aimed to examine respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength and endurance, peripheral muscle strength, upper extremity functional exercise capacity, muscle oxygenation, and dyspnea in patients with OSAS, and to compare these parameters with those of healthy controls.
The 2 groups in the trial
- Obstructive sleep apnea
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome will be included in the study.
- Control Group
Healthy individuals will be included in the study.
Questions to ask the study team
- How often do I need to come in, and for how long each time?
- Are travel costs paid?
- Can I keep my own doctor?
- What happens if I want to stop?
