Muscle Oxygenation, Functional Capacity and Frailty in Kidney Transplant Recipients with and Without Inspiratory Muscle Weakness

Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) will be measured using a portable mouth pressure measuring device.

Maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) will be measured using a portable mouth pressure measuring device.

Will be evaluated with 6 minute walk test.

Knee extensor strength will be measured using a hand dynamometer.

Hand grip strength will be measured using grip dynamometer.

Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Forced expiratory volume in one second will be recorded.

Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Forced vital capacity will be recorded.

Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity will be recorded.

Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Peak expiratory flow will be recorded.

Respiratory function will be evaluated using spirometry. Forced mid-expiratory flow (FEF25-75) will be recorded.

It will be evaluated by bioelectrical impedance analysis method. Percentage of fat and lean body mass wiil be recorded.

It will be assessed according to the criteria defined by Fried. The existence of 5 parameters is questioned here. These parameters are as follows: weight loss, weakness, fatigue, slowness, low physical activity. Those with 3 or more of the 5 identified components are classified as fragile.
