Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Does pulmonary rehabilitation facilitate pulmonary muscle strength recovery? Does the intervention improve pulmonary function and reduce dyspnea sensation?
Participants performed:
Inspiratory muscle training twice a day for 12 weeks after discharged from the hospital Upper limb resistive training Lower limb exercise
