Investigating The Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training during Hemodialysis On Pulmonary Function, Sleep Quality And Quality of Life In End Stage Renal Disease Patients With Overload: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Determine The Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training during Hemodialysis On Pulmonary Function, Sleep Quality And Quality of Life In End Stage Renal Disease Patients With Overload
Design
A controlled, parallel-group, single-blind, randomized trial, phase 2 clinical trial on 60 patients. The website https://www.sealedenvelope.com will be used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
The study will be conducted at Shahid Jalil Hospital, Yasuj. The intervention will be performed for 2 weeks using the SpiroXpert, a proprietary, pitot tube designed by SpiroXpert, proprietary designed pitot tube, floXpert, Iran . The study is single-blind. Due to the nature of the intervention (tail muscle exercises during hemodialysis), patients are aware of the intervention and there is no possibility of blinding them. However, in order to reduce bias in the evaluation of the results, the assessor responsible for measuring the outcome variables will be unaware of the allocation of patients to the intervention or control group.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion: The patient must have a history of dialysis for at least three months. The patient must have fluid overload. No cancer.
Exclusion: Pregnancy and acute lung infection
Intervention groups
After Random Assignment To Two Intervention And Control Groups, The Intervention Group Will Undergo Intervention Using A Tailbone Strengthening Device Twice A Week For 6 Weeks. The Control Group Will Receive Standard Treatment.
Main outcome variables
Pulmonary Function; Quality of Life; Sleep Quality

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The blocking method will be used to allocate individuals to the study groups. The advantages of blocked randomization are that the balance of the number of patients in each group is guaranteed. The groups are defined as codes A and B. Group A will be considered the intervention and group B the control.
Before assigning individuals to one of the groups, a list of letters (A, B) in the form of blocks will be formed. This random assignment list will be formed by the reputable website https://www.sealedenvelope.com. Each of the referring and eligible individuals will be assigned to one of the groups according to the created list. To prevent the predictable risk of assigning individuals to different groups, blocks of different sizes (2; 4; 6 and 8) will be created. Blocks of two such as AB - blocks of four such as ABAB - blocks of six such as AABABB - blocks of eight such as ABBABABA.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
The study is single-blind. Due to the nature of the intervention (tail muscle exercises during hemodialysis), patients are aware of the intervention and there is no possibility of blinding them. However, in order to reduce bias in the assessment of the results, the assessor responsible for measuring the outcome variables will be unaware of the allocation of patients to the intervention or control group.
