Condition: Diabetes Type II · Sponsor: Foundation University Islamabad
Diabetes type II is a metabolic syndrome involving high sugar levels known as hyperglycemia. It can impair pulmonary function through reduced lung elasticity and gas exchange and weaken core muscles due to inflammation and muscle atrophy. Literature has shown the individual effects of these exercises on quality of life. However, no study has yet evaluated the combined effects of these exercises on different variables such as lung function, functional capacity, and blood sugar levels. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to compare the effects of diaphragmatic breathing and Pilates breathing, combined with core strengthening exercises, on lung function, functional capacity, blood sugar levels, and quality of life. The study aims to determine which breathing technique provides greater physiological and functional benefits. METHOD: The study will be a Randomized control trial consisting of two groups subjects meeting the inclusion criteria will be selected for the study. The subjects will then be randomly assigned to two groups. One group will receive Diaphragmatic breathing with core strengthening exercises and other group will receive Pilate breathing with core strengthening exercises. Before initiating the treatment procedure following would be assessed for all the patients: Pulmonary Function, Functional Capacity, Blood sugar levels and quality of life. Afterwards a treatment regime distributed over the course of six weeks will be given to all patients. After the inte…
