カロリンスカ研究所Dysfunctional Breathing in Post COVID-19 Condition. (DB-PCC)
Participants for this study will be recruited from the ReCov cohort will be evaluated with diffrent measurments and questionnaires.
Methods and planned studies This project is a part of a larger multi-disciplinary and multi-professional study, ReCOV, that takes a holistic perspective on the consequences of the disease. ReCOV is a three-armed project including patients, next of kin and staff (23). Patients have been followed up at the out-patient clinic for patients with PCC at Karolinska University Hospital (K).
The longitudinal observational study is about physical and psychological recovery, objectively measured physical activity and also an interview study of the patients' overall experiences of rehabilitation after COVID-19 both in the acute and long-term perspective. In total approximately 950 patients have accepted to be apart of ReCOV and to this proposed project patients will be recruited from this cohort but also from primary care. This research project will be performed in collaboration with Karolinska Institutet, Karolinska university Hospital (K), Sahlgrenska University Hospital (SH). University of Gothenburg and primary care in Region Stockholm.
Study 1: Dysfunctional breathing in patients with post COVID-19 condition?
Aim: To investigate what signs, symptoms and assessment which can describe and explain dysfunctional breathing in patients with post COVID-19 condition.
Design: Cross-sectional design
Participants: Patients (approximately n=200) for this study will be recruited from the ReCov cohort. All patients will be > 18 years old. Patients that state that they have persistent respiratory problems and abnormal clinical respiratory findings will be included. Patients will also be recruited from primary care if they have suspected dysfunctional breathing pattern (unable to breathe with a normal breathing pattern in standing). Exclusion Criteria: Not able to perform the measurements because of cognitive or physical impairments, ongoing intervention of breathing exercises.
Procedure and outcomes: All included patients will be evaluated for physical and psychological function, symptoms and HrQoL. The following measurements and questionnaires will be used:
Dependent variables (primary outcome):
Health-related Quality of Life (EQ-5D-5L), EQ VAS Breathing pattern by Respiratory Movement Measuring Instrument (RMMI)
Independent, confounding and possible moderating variables:
Inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength (MIP and MEP) (Micro-RPM) Chest mobility by thoracic expansion Six-minute walk to measure endurance (in meters) Spirometry Diaphragmatic ultrasound End tidal CO2 measured during exercise
Physical Activity level (Frändin/ Grimby) Nijmegen questionnaire (dysfunctional breathing) COPD Assessment Test (CAT), questionnaire of symptoms related to breathing and now commonly used for this group of patients Dyspnea (mMRC, Modified Medical Research Council, Dyspnea Scale and BORG CR10) Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7) Breathing Pattern Assessment Tool (BPAT)

Breathing pattern by Respiratory Movement Measuring Instrument (RMMI) and Health-related Quality of Life (EQ-5D-5L) | Will be assesed in a supine position, using the RMMI. First, during 30 seconds of tidal volume breathing. Second, during 60 seconds of performing maximal breathing manoeuvres interspaced by tidal volume breathing and then during 60 seconds after performing activity that triggers dyspnea. The RMMI records bilateral changes in the anterior posterior diameter, including both upper and lower thoracic and abdominal movements.
Health-related Quality of Life is measured with EuroQualityOf Life 5 dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L), which is an instrument that evaluates the generic quality of life. EQ-5D includes a descriptive system, which comprises 5 dimensions of health: mobility, selfcare, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. A descriptive index-score between 0-1, higher score indicates higher HRQoL. EQ-5D also includes a visual analog scale (VAS), which records self-rated health status on a graduated (0-100) scale, with higher scores for higher HRQoL | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 5-10 minutes to be completed. |
| 評価指標 | 指標の説明 | 時間枠 |
|---|---|---|
Maximal Inspiratory Pressure (MIP) | Maximal Inspiratory muscle strength (MIP) will be measured with Micro RPM in cmH2O | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 5-10 minutes to be completed. |
Maximal Expiratory Pressure ( MEP) | Maximal expiratory muscle strength (MEP) will be measured with Micro-RPM in cm H20 | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 5-10 minutes to be completed. |
Chest mobility | Chest mobility will be measured with a tape measure at the xiphoid process and the 4th rib | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 5 minutes to be completed. |
Six-minute walk test (6MWT) | Six-minute walk to measure endurance (in meters) | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 15 minutes to be completed. |
Spirometry | Lung function test with forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory flow in one second (FEV1), diffusion capacity (DLCO) | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 30 minutes to be completed. |
End tidal CO2 | End tidal CO2 measured during exercise | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 15 minutes to be completed. |
Physical Activity level (Frändin/ Grimby) | Measured with Frändin/Grimby activity scale, which is a self-assessment scale about current levels of physical activity, ranging from 1 to 6. The higher the score, the higher level of physical activity. | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 2 minutes to be completed. |
Nijmegen questionnaire (dysfunctional breathing) | Dysfunctional breathing will be assessed with the Nijmegen questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of 16 items asking about the symptoms related to dysfunctional breathing.
Participants will grade how often they suffered from each item on a five-point Likert scale, ranging from 0 to 4, in which 0 is never ,1 is rarely, 2 is sometimes , 3 is often , and 4 is very often. Total score ranging from 0 to 64. A score of 23 and over indicates dysfunctional breathing. | Assessment will be applied only once and takes about 5-10 minutes to be completed. |
