Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adolescents with Behçet disease who have undergone pulmonary endarterectomy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without responsiveness to inspiratory muscle training or those not completing the program may not experience benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
Forty adolescents with Behçet disease who have undergone pulmonary endarterectomy are assigned to either an inspiratory muscle training program for 12 weeks or a waitlist control. The study compares breathing muscle strength and related outcomes between the two groups. The training consists of one daily session (with two rest days per week). The trial is conducted at Cairo University and aims to see if improving inspiratory muscle strength can improve post-surgical recovery and respiratory function.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience stronger breathing muscles and better post-operative recovery after pulmonary endarterectomy.
How similar studies have gone: Previous work in respiratory muscle training for surgical or pulmonary conditions suggests potential benefits, but data in Behçet patients post-endarterectomy are limited.
