Updates in inspiratory muscle training for older adults: A systematic review.

Archives of gerontology and geriatrics (Print)
Systematic reviews support the benefits of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) for exercise performance. Recently, many health benefits from IMT have been reported in older adults. Therefore, this work reviewed the literature focusing on IMT effects beyond

Pressure-flow specificity of inspiratory muscle training

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1994
The inspiratory muscles (IM) can be trained by having a subject breathe through inspiratory resistive loads or by use of unloaded hyperpnea. These disparate training protocols are characterized by high inspiratory pressure (force) or high inspiratory flow (velocity), respectively.

Inspiratory Muscle Training in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Prevention, 2015
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on functional capacity, respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary function, quality of life, and fatigue and dyspnea perception in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).Twenty-nine clinically stable PAH patients were included in this study.

Effects of inspiratory muscle training on pulmonary function, diaphragmatic thickness, balance and exercise capacity in people after stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Disability and Rehabilitation
Purpose To examine the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on pulmonary and diaphragmatic function, exercise capacity, balance and quality of life (QOL), in post-stroke individuals. Methods A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, CINAHL,

Inspiratory muscle training impact on respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary function, and quality of life in children with chest burn: A randomized controlled trial.

Burns
PURPOSE Respiratory muscle function is compromised in children recovering from chest wall burns, which potentially leads to more impact on exercise capacity and quality of life.

Inspiratory Muscle Training in Patients with Bronchial Asthma

Chest, 1992
In patients with asthma, the respiratory muscles have to overcome the increased resistance while they become progressively disadvantaged by hyperinflation. We hypothesized that increasing respiratory muscle strength and endurance with specific inspiratory muscle training (SIMT) would result in improvement in asthma symptoms in patients with asthma ...

Impact of inspiratory muscle training on aspiration symptoms in patients with dysphagia following ischemic stroke.

Brain Research
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of inspiratory muscle training on lung function and swallowing function in patients with dysphagia-induced aspiration following ischemic stroke and to evaluate the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training on ...

Inspiratory Muscle Training

2017
The respiratory pump is at the center of the ventilatory system and ensures supply and removal of respiratory gases. Proper functioning of the pump depends on a delicate balance between its capacity and the load exerted on it. Impairments in diaphragmatic and non-diaphragmatic inspiratory muscle function can distort this balance and can lead to an ...

Lung volume specificity of inspiratory muscle training

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1994
We examined the extent to which training-related increases of inspiratory muscle (IM) strength are limited to the lung volume (VL) at which the training occurs. IM strength training consisted of performing repeated static maximum inspiratory maneuvers.

Preoperative Inspiratory Muscle Training and Postoperative Complications

JAMA, 2007
Finally, the authors did not mention the potential risks of IMT. It has been shown in animal studies3 and human studies4 that IMT may be deleterious and may produce injury of the diaphragm, even though it may benefit the external intercostal muscles ...
