Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Chronic kidney disease is a renal injury and progressive and irreversible loss of kidney function and in its most advanced stage is called chronic renal failure. Although hemodialysis replace some kidney function, patients suffer some alterations characterized by "uremic syndrome" typically expressed by: motor neuropathy and/ or autonomic neuropathy, cardiac or musculoskeletal myopathies, peripheral vascular changes, among others. Thereby, the the adoption of physical exercise should be encouraged. However, it is known that the ability to exercise the subject in hemodialysis is low and they present weakness of the peripheral muscular system, including inspiratory muscles. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on ventilatory muscle strength and functional capacity of patients with chronic kidney disease in hemodialysis. For this the following assessments will be performed before and after intervention: six-minute walk test to functional capacity; Kidney Disease and Quality of Life - Short Form questionnaire for quality of life; flow-mediated dilatation to endothelial function; sit-to-stand test for proximal strength of lower limbs. The subjects will be randomized into two groups, IMTG (inspiratory muscle training group) and CG (control group). The first will receive the IMT, for five weeks, three times a week, during hemodialysis session and the patients will be oriented to realize more three days at home. The control group only will be evaluated and re-evaluated. Expected results at the end of the protocol with IMT are: increased inspiratory muscle strength; longest distance covered on the six-minute walk test; improved quality of life; increased muscle strength of the lower limbs; improved endothelial function.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The research will be developed in the hemodialysis unit of the Santa Clara hospital of Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Porto Alegre. After the selection of patients for eligibility criteria they will be randomized into IMTG or control group. First all patients will be evaluated, and subsequently the patients in the IMTG will be trained six times per week (three times at hemodialysis unit and three times at home) for five weeks using a linear pressure load device (POWERbreathe Plus Light Resistance@, England). The sessions will take place in the first hour of dialysis and the training protocol will consist of five series with 10 repetitions, each serie with a two-minute interval or according to the patient´s feedback, using the Borg modified scale. The overload will be adjusted weekly, beginning with 50% of maximum inspiratory pressure and increasing until 70% along the protocol period. At the end of follow-up, both groups will be evaluated in order to compare.

Inspiratory muscle training group

Six times a week (three supervised at hemodialysis unit and other three times at home), 5 series, 10 repetitions, two-minutes interval or according to the patient tolerance.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Inspiratory muscle training

Intervention Type OTHER

Inspiratory muscle training will be performed during the first hour of hemodialysis treatment and the protocol will consist of five series with 10 repetitions, each series with a two-minute interval of according to patient tolerance. The overload will be adjusted weekly, beginning with 50% of the maximum inspiratory pressure, during the first week, 60% of maximum inspiratory pressure in the second and third week and 70% of maximum inspiratory pressure in the fourth and fifth weeks. Maximum inspiratory pressure will be evaluated before the protocol period and adjusted weekly by manovacuometry.

Control group

The patients in this group will be evaluated at baseline and reassessed after five weeks of follow-up.
