August 6, 2021 updated by: Rana Elbanna, Cairo University

Influence of Surgical Mask on Functional Capacity and Quality of Life During Controlled Endurance Exercise in Sedentary Adults

Subjects had randomly divided into two groups. All will do aerobic exercise in form of treadmill but Group (A) will do while wearing surgical mask and Group (B) without surgical mask. To detect the Influence of surgical mask on functional capacity and quality of life during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults

Detailed Description

Group (A):

  1. Each subject will sign a consent form after receiving a detailed explanation about the procedure.
  2. Functional capacity and Quality of life will be evaluated before the start of the training.
  3. Subjects in group A will wear surgical mask before starting of the session. 4.3 sessions will be done every week for 3 months.

5.The session will start with warming up for 5 minutes then 25 minutes of aerobic exercise on the treadmill with moderate intensity followed by cooling down for 5 minutes.

6.After finishing the program, the participant will be evaluated to detect the effect of the exercise.

Group (B):

  1. Each subject will sign a consent form after receiving a detailed explanation about the procedure.
  2. Functional capacity and Quality of life will be evaluated before the start of the training.
  3. Subjects in group A will not wear any mask during the session. 4.3 sessions will be done every week for 3 months.

5.The session will start with warming up for 5 minutes then 25 minutes of aerobic exercise on the treadmill with moderate intensity followed by cooling down for 5 minutes.

6.After finishing the program, the participant will be evaluated to detect the effect of the exercise.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Influence of surgical mask on Blood pressure during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults
Time Frame: three months
Measuring Blood pressure before and after the all program
three months
Influence of surgical mask on Resting and post exercise heart rate during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults
Time Frame: three months
Measuring Resting and post exercise heart rate before and after the all program
three months
Influence of surgical mask on resting and post exercise respiratory rate during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults
Time Frame: three months
Measuring resting and post exercise respiratory rate before and after the all program
three months
Influence of surgical mask on oxygen saturation, maximum oxygen consumption during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults
Time Frame: three months
Measuring oxygen saturation, maximum oxygen consumption before and after the all program
three months
Influence of surgical mask on quality of life during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults
Time Frame: three months
quality of life will be measured using short form quality of life 36 questionnaire, with score ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate better health status, and a mean score of 50 has been articulated as a normative value for all scales.
three months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Influence of surgical mask on rate of perceived exertion during controlled endurance exercise in sedentary adults
Time Frame: three months
rate of perceived exertion will be measured by Borg scale with score ranged from 6-20 before and after intervention.
three months
Influence of surgical mask on submaximal exercise capacity during controlled endurance
Time Frame: three months
submaximal exercise capacity will be detected by six-minutes walking test and the distance which will be obtained will be measured by meter before and after the all program
three months
