    Comparison of Conventional Pulmonary Rehabilitation and High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation In Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
    (WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2014) KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; Gokdemir, Yasemin; Karadag-Saygi, Evrim; Erdem, Ela; Bayindir, Ozun; Ersu, Refika; Karadag, Bulent; Sekban, Nimet; Akyuz, Gulseren; Karakoc, Fazilet
    BackgroundEnhancement of mucociliary clearance by pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is advocated in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Our primary aim was to compare the efficacy and safety of postural drainage, percussion and vibration [conventional PR (CPR)], and high frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) by studying change in pulmonary function. Our secondary aim was to evaluate patient preferences regarding the two methods. MethodsThis was a controlled randomized crossover study. PCD patients between the ages of 7 and 18 years were assigned to two groups, first group performed airway clearance with CPR at hospital for 5 days and after a 2-day washout period HFCWO was applied to the same group at home. HFCWO was applied first to the other group and then these patients were hospitalized for CPR. The primary outcome measure of the study was pulmonary function test (PFT). The secondary outcomes were pulse arterial oxygen saturation (SpO(2)) and the perceived efficiency and comfort level. ResultsPFT values of patients increased significantly after both PR methods (before/after): CPR: FVC: 77.014.1/81.8 +/- 13.0 (P=0.002); FEV1: 72.9 +/- 14.8/78.7 +/- 13.5 (P=0.001); PEF: 73.8 +/- 14.5/82.5 +/- 14.5 (P=0.001); FEF25-75: 68.6 +/- 27.6/74.9 +/- 29.3 (P=0.007). HFCWO: FVC: 75.1 +/- 15.3/80.3 +/- 13.9 (P=0.002); FEV1: 71.4 +/- 16/77.4 +/- 14.6 (P=0.001); PEF: 70.9 +/- 18.0/78.3 +/- 17.7 (P=0.002); FEF25-75: 70.5 +/- 23.4/76.4 +/- 25.6 (P=0.006). There were no significant differences in % predicted FVC, FEV1, PEF, and FEF25-75 increased values with CPR and HFCWO. HFCWO was found more comfortable (P=0.04). Two PR methods were found efficient and no desaturation occurred during PR. ConclusionsPFTs were significantly increased after both PR methods. There were no differences in PFTs and SpO(2) between the CPR and HFCWO groups. Both PR methods were found efficient. HFCWO was found more comfortable. HFCWO may be an option in patients with chronic pulmonary disease and low adherence to PR. Pediatr Pulmonol. 2014; 49:611-616. (c) 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    Caregiver burden in children with cystic fibrosis and primary ciliary dyskinesia
    (WILEY, 2019) KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; Coskun, Ozge Kenis; Atalay, Kardelen Gencer; Erdem, Ela; Karadag-Saygi, Evrim; Gokdemir, Yasemin; Karadag, Bulent
    Introduction Caregiver burden impacts both the social and economic framework of society. Cystic fibrosis (CF) causes significant caregiver burden, but the current data is scarce. In the case of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), even less is known. This study aims to compare the caregiver burden of the parents of patients with CF and PCD. Methods Patients with CF and PCD between the ages of 6 to 13 and their parents were included. Patients' clinical information and parents' demographics were recorded. Caregiver burden was measured with Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale (ZCB), while the quality of life (QOL) was measured with CFQOL-revised (CFQOL-R) and PCD QOL questionnaire as the patients' age and diagnosis indicated. Results A total of 63 patients, 44 with CF (69%) and 85 caregivers (35 mothers, 6 fathers, and 22 mother-father dyads) participated in the study. Caregiver burden was significantly higher in mothers of the CF group with a mean ZCB of 30.5 +/- 10.7 when compared to the PCD group with a mean ZCB of 21.93 +/- 8.26 (P = .006). This was similar in fathers with mean ZCB of 27.5 +/- 9.21 in the CF group and 20.36 +/- 7.43 in the PCD group (P = .03). In correlation analyses, mothers' caregiver burden moderately and inversely correlated with CFQOL-R subscales in the CF population. Conclusion Caregiver burden is significantly higher in the CF population when compared to PCD. It is correlated with pulmonary functions and QOL in patients with CF.

    The involvement of musculoskeletal system and its influence on postural stability in children and young adults with cystic fibrosis
    (BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2017-12) KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; Kenis-Coskun, Ozge; Karadag-Saygi, Evrim; Bahar-Ozdemir, Yeliz; Gokdemir, Yasemin; Karadag, Bulent; Kayhan, Onder
    Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) affects the musculoskeletal system via a multifactorial pathway that includes vitamin D deficiency and involvement of respiratory muscles such as intercostals due to recurrent upper and lower respiratory tract infections. Eventual result is the deterioration of musculoskeletal health and posture in CF patients. Postural stability is directly affected by posture and can be compromised in every musculoskeletal problem. The aim of this study is to evaluate musculoskeletal system and postural stability in patients with CF. Methods: Patients with CF over six years of age and age and sex-matched control groups were included in the study. Cobb angle and thoracic kyphosis angles were measured on the spine radiographs. Both patients and control group were examined with pediatric gait, arms, legs and spine scale (pGALS). They also were evaluated with a NeuroCom Balance Master for their postural stability. Results: Fifty-one patients with CF and 94 healthy controls participated in the study. In results of the pGALS examination, CF group had significantly more pathological findings than the control group in lower extremity appearance and movement (p = 0.006 and p = 0.01) and spine appearance and movement (p = 0.001 and p = 0.022) domains. The tandem walking speed was significantly higher in controls with a mean of 24.45 +/- 7.79 while it was 20.47 +/- 6.95 in the CF group (p = 0.03). Various limits of stability parameters also showed significant differences. Medium correlations were found between musculoskeletal examination and postural stability parameters. Conclusion: In patients with CF, a systematic but simple musculoskeletal examination can detect pathologies, which are more frequent than the normal population. These pathologies show a medium correlation with the involvement of postural stability.
