The Effects of Yoga Practice on Exercise Capacity, Arterial Stiffness, Respiratory Function, Peripheral Muscle Strength, Posture and Quality of Life in Children With Cystic Fibrosis

5. November 2026 aktualisiert von: Naciye Vardar-Yagli, Hacettepe University

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of exercise training applied through telerehabilitation on exercise capacity, peripheral and respiratory muscle strength, arterial stiffness, posture and quality of life in children with cystic fibrosis.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

The most common problems in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are increased bronchial secretions, reduced exercise tolerance and shortness of breath.

Exercise capacity is limited due to muscle dysfunction, inflammation and progressive respiratory disease. Cardiovascular complications are one of the long-term complications of CF. Increased arterial stiffness is an indicator of elevated cardiovascular risk. It has been shown that patients with CF have increased arterial stiffness compared to their healthy peers.

Exercise training has a positive effect on exercise capacity, respiratory function and quality of life in patients with CF. Studies have shown that exercise training applied using the telerehabilitation method increases exercise capacity and improves peripheral muscle function in patients with CF. Peripheral muscle function, functional capacity, arterial stiffness and posture have been assessed in patients with CF. Furthermore, studies have been performed on patients with CF involving exercise training via telerehabilitation.In addition, various studies have shown that yoga and aerobic exercise training have positive effects on arterial stiffness. Although there are only a few studies involving patients with CF who practise yoga, no study has been found that assesses the effects of yoga practise via telerehabilitation on exercise capacity, peripheral and respiratory muscle function, and arterial stiffness.The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of exercise training using telerehabilitation on exercise capacity, peripheral and respiratory muscle strength, arterial stiffness, posture and quality of life in children with CF.

Children were randomly assigned to three groups: The first group will receive online aerobic exercise training and yoga sessions. The second group will receive only aerobic exercise training.The third group will be informed about the importance of physical activity and will be given recommendations for physical activity. Participants' respiratory function, exercise capacity, arterial stiffness parameters, peripheral muscle function, posture and quality of life questionnaire will be evaluated initially and following an 8-week exercise programme.

aerobic exercise training and yoga sessions in patients with cystic fibrosis

Patients will be performed online in groups of 3-4 participants supervised aerobic exercises and yoga sessions. Aerobic exercises will be applied for 8 weeks, for 30-45 minutes, at 65-75% of the maximum heart rate, 3 days a week, on the days when yoga sessions are not performed. The yoga sessions will consist of 30-40-minute sessions, with three sessions per week for eight weeks. The yoga sessions will consist of three core components - asana (postures), pranayama (breathing) and meditation (focus).
