To overcome technical limitations during 6MWT, 6-minute stepper test (6MST) has been proposed to assess exercise capacity. Another test that provides information about exercise capacity is the 1-minute sit-to-stand test (1STS). To our knowledge, there is limited information about different exercise tests including 6MST and 1STS and cardiopulmonary responses to these tests in individuals with bronchiectasis. Therefore, this study aims to compare the responses to the 6MST between individuals with bronchiectasis and healthy controls and to investigate the relationships among 6MST, 6MWT, and 1STS responses and muscle strength.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Individuals with bronchiectasis and healthy controls', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Bronchiectasis group - Inclusion criteria for the study:\n\n* Being 18 years of age and older,\n* Having a clinically stable bronchiectasis,\n* To cooperate with the tests to be performed,\n* Not having a cardiovascular disease, orthopedic or neurological problem that may affect the tests,\n* Being willing to participate in the study.\n\nBronchiectasis group - Exclusion criteria:\n\n* Being in an acute exacerbation period,\n* Having a cardiovascular, orthopedic or neurological problem that may affect the tests,\n* Not being willing to participate in the study.\n\nControl group - Inclusion criteria for the study:\n\n* Being 18 years of age and older,\n* To cooperate with the tests to be performed,\n* Not having a cardiovascular, orthopedic or neurological problem that may affect the tests,\n* Being willing to participate in the study.\n\nControl group - Exclusion criteria:\n\n\\- Individuals with any known internal disease and those who do not volunteer to participate in the study will not be included in the study.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06631261', 'briefTitle': 'Cardiopulmonary Responses to 6-Minute Stepper Test in Bronchiectasis Versus Healthy Controls', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Hacettepe University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Comparison of Cardiopulmonary Responses to 6-Minute Stepper Test Between Individuals with Bronchiectasis and Healthy Controls', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SBA 24/793'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Bronchiectasis', 'description': 'Individuals with bronchiectasis', 'interventionNames': ['Other: No intervention; Observational study']}, {'label': 'Healthy controls', 'interventionNames': ['Other: No intervention; Observational study']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'No intervention; Observational study', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'No intervention', 'armGroupLabels': ['Bronchiectasis', 'Healthy controls']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '06100', 'city': 'Ankara', 'state': 'Ankara', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Turkey (Türkiye)', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Aslihan Cakmak-Onal, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'aslihancakmak90@gmail.com', 'phone': '+903123051576'}, {'name': 'Elif Kocaaga, MSc, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}, {'name': 'Aslihan Cakmak-Onal, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}, {'name': 'Naciye Vardar-Yagli, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}, {'name': 'Ziya Toros Selcuk, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT'}, {'name': 'Deniz Inal-Ince, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}, {'name': 'Melda Saglam, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}, {'name': 'Ebru Calik-Kutukcu, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}], 'facility': 'Hacettepe University Faculty of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 39.91987, 'lon': 32.85427}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Aslihan Cakmak-Onal Study Principal Investigator, PhD, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'aslihancakmak90@gmail.com', 'phone': '+903123051576'}, {'name': 'Elif Kocaaga, MSc, PT', 'role': 'CONTACT'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Hacettepe University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Principal Investigator', 'investigatorFullName': 'Aslihan Cakmak', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Hacettepe University'}}}}
