Sponsor's own description

This is an educational work. Thirty patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis will be included in the study and randomly selected into two training groups.One group will receive home inspiratory muscle training (IMT) for 15 minutes, twice a day, 7 days a week with the resh Threshold IMT 'device. In the IMT group, the initial training intensity will be determined by measuring the maximal inspiratory muscle strength (MIP) with the intraoral pressure measuring device, 30% of the measured (MIP) value will be started at the first evaluation and the new training intensity will be determined by calculating 30% of the measured value by repeating the MIP measurement every week. The other group will perform upper extremity and trunk exercises combined with respiratory exercises at home for 7 days, twice a day for 15 minutes.Patients will be evaluated before the training program and 8 weeks after the training. In the first evaluation, demographic information and clinical characteristics of the patients will be noted.In this study, upper and lower extremity exercise capacity, respiratory functions, peripheral muscle strength, dyspnea, fatigue, sleep quality, cognitive function, daily living activities, physical activity level, anxiety, depression, upper extremity and trunk exercises combined with inspiratory muscle training in patients with sarcoidosis and the impact on quality of life.
