About

The research will be planned on 72 individuals between the ages of 18-65 who were diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome at Istanbul Medipol University Çamlıca SUAM Gastroenterology Polyclinic. Patients will be divided into 3 groups; High-intensity interval training and a disease-specific nutrition program for the first group, and a disease-specific nutrition program for the second group; Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) and a disease-specific nutrition program will be given, while the control group will be given only a disease-specific nutrition program. Evaluations will be made immediately before and after treatment. The first experimental group will be asked to walk with high-intensity interval training, which the investigators plan for 30 minutes, 4 days a week for 8 weeks. TBFT will be applied to the second experimental group every day of the week. The application will be done face to face one day a week, and the patient will be asked to do it himself on the other days, and the sessions will last approximately 30 minutes. In addition, all patients will be asked to follow the nutrition program determined by the dietician. Participants' sociodemographic information, IBS disease type and medications used will be recorded. In order to collect data for both the intervention groups and the control group immediately before and after the study; 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT), posture analysis, muscle shortness test for large muscle groups in the lower and upper extremities, International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF), Diet Compliance Questionnaire Form, Bristol Stool Scale Form, Gastrointestinal Symptom Assessment Scale (GSDS). ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), IBS Quality of Life Scale (IBS-QOL), Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (SAA), Psychological Well-Being Scale (PIOS) and Body Awareness Questionnaire (VFA) will be used.

Full description

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS); It is one of the most frequently diagnosed gastrointestinal diseases, defined by the presence of altered bowel habits, abdominal pain, and discomfort in the absence of another causative disease. The research will be planned on 72 individuals between the ages of 18-65 who were diagnosed with IBS at Istanbul Medipol University Çamlıca SUAM Gastroenterology Polyclinic. Patients will be divided into 3 groups; High-intensity interval training and a disease-specific nutrition program for the first group, and a disease-specific nutrition program for the second group; Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) and a disease-specific nutrition program will be given, while the control group will be given only a disease-specific nutrition program. Evaluations will be made immediately before and after treatment. The first experimental group will be asked to walk with high-intensity interval training, which the investigators plan for 30 minutes, 4 days a week for 8 weeks. TBFT will be applied to the second experimental group every day of the week. The application will be done face to face one day a week, and the patient will be asked to do it himself on the other days, and the sessions will last approximately 30 minutes. In addition, all patients will be asked to follow the nutrition program determined by the dietician. Participants' sociodemographic information, IBS disease type and medications used will be recorded. In order to collect data for both the intervention groups and the control group immediately before and after the study; 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT), posture analysis, muscle shortness test for large muscle groups in the lower and upper extremities, International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF), Diet Compliance Questionnaire Form, Bristol Stool Scale Form, Gastrointestinal Symptom Assessment Scale (GSDS). ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), IBS Quality of Life Scale (IBS-QOL), Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (SAA), Psychological Well-Being Scale (PIOS) and Body Awareness Questionnaire (VFA) will be used. Physiotherapy and rehabilitation applications of aerobic exercise and TBFT have been rarely studied in the literature on patients with IBS; this will be the first and original study, as there are no studies examining the effects of a disease-specific nutrition program on gastrointestinal symptoms, quality of life, sleep quality and well-being.
