In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The study is a randomized controlled trial. The cases will be divided into two groups as the Homespirometer group and the control group. Breathing exercises, aerobic exercise and peripheral muscle strengthening will be performed in both groups. A home-type spirometer will be given to the homespirometer group and it will be requested to send the spirometric measurement every week. The cases will be called to the hospital for control and evaluated at baseline, 3rd, 6th and 12th months. Evaluations include assessments such as exercise capacity measurement, muscle strength measurement, disease attack frequency, symptom scoring.
