Detailed Description

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

The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of adding inspiratory muscle training to pulmonary rehabilitation in adult burn patients. Fifty-two participants were randomly assigned to either inspiratory muscle training plus pulmonary rehabilitation or pulmonary rehabilitation alone for 8 weeks. Inspiratory muscle training consisted of using a Powerbreathe device for inspiratory muscle strengthening.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Respiratory muscle training group

Received inspiratory muscle training plus pulmonary rehabilitation program. Powerbreathe device was used for the exercise of the inspiratory muscle strength. Strengthening the inspiratory muscles with the Powerbreathe is similar to weightlifting to strengthen other muscles in the body.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

inspiratory exercise

Intervention Type OTHER

The training consisted of 6 sets of 30 breaths per day, divided into 2 sessions per day. A one-minute rest interval between each set. Training was prescribed 5 days a week for 8 weeks

Pulmonary rehabilitation

Intervention Type OTHER

Four resistive exercises, aerobic exercise, and deep breathing exercises, five sessions per week for 8 weeks

Pulmonary rehabilitation group

Received pulmonary rehabilitation program for five sessions per week for 8 weeks. Four resistive exercises, aerobic exercise, and deep breathing exercises, aerobic conditioning exercises on the treadmill. All exercises were performed using variable resistance machines.
