Effects of Clinical Pilates on Physical and Psychosocial Outcomes in Individuals With Interstitial Lung Disease

Sponsor: Recep Tayyip Erdogan University

Summary

This study aims to investigate the effects of Clinical Pilates on physical and psychosocial outcomes in individuals with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Interstitial lung disease is a group of chronic conditions that affect lung tissue and can lead to breathing difficulties, reduced physical capacity, fatigue, and decreased quality of life. In addition to medical treatment, exercise-based rehabilitation approaches may help individuals with ILD improve their physical function and overall well-being. Clinical Pilates is a structured exercise method that focuses on breathing control, posture, core stability, flexibility, and body awareness. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to either a Clinical Pilates group or a control group receiving standard care. The Clinical Pilates program will be delivered by a trained physiotherapist over several weeks through supervised sessions. The main outcomes of this study include physical function, respiratory symptoms, quality of life, and psychological well-being. The results of this study are expected to provide evidence on whether Clinical Pilates can be an effective and safe supportive approach for pulmonary rehabilitation in individuals with interstitial lung disease.
