Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Inspiratory muscle training
Inspiratory muscle training for 8 weeks using a device that provides a linear resistance in the inspiratory phase. 7 days a week. 8 sets of 2 minutes twice a day. Intensity was at 40% of Maximal Inspiratory Pressure.
Inspiratory muscle training
Training sham
Training sham for 8 weeks using a device without provides resistance. 7 days a week. 8 sets of 2 minutes twice a day. Intensity was canceled.
Training sham
Conducting fake training with the aim of blind the control group
