About this study

Official title: CLINICAL SAFETY FOR THE INSPIRATORY MUSCLE TRAINING IN CARDIOPULMONARY REHABILITATION PROGRAM

The aim of this study is evaluate the clinical, hemodynamic and electrocardiographic responses during an inspiratory muscle training session during a single cardiopulmonary rehabilitation session program. An electrocardiogram will be continuously recorded and the heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) will be evaluated before, during and immediately after a single inspiratory muscle training (IMT) session, consisting of two series of 15 cycles, with one-minute intervals between sets and an initial load of at least 30% of the initial maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP).

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Inspiratory Muscle TrainingOther

    Each session The session itself consisted of the following: two sets of 15 breathe cycles without removing the breathing promoter from the mouth and with the aid of a nose clip and 1-minute interval between sets. For training, we used the breathing promoters Power Breathe® Plus Light and Medium Resistance, possessing 10 levels of load gradation ranging from 17 to 186 cm H2O, which were adjusted for each patient and allowed for the individualized prescription of IMT

IMT - Inspiratory Muscle Training21 (16 males/5 femalesen) with a mean age of 73 ± 7.4 years were studied. Among the 21 study participants, the most prevalent clinical condition was coronary artery disease (11 cases); four individuals showing a diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and/or asthma, two presented congestive heart failure and the last four had other diseases
Receives: Other: Inspiratory Muscle Training

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. abnormal clinical responses

    During an IMT session, with two sets of 15 cycles at 30% of the load observed in MIP, there were no significant clinical or hemodynamic changes in patients regularly attending a supervised exercise program. In contrast, there are relatively frequent inductions of cardiac arrhythmias, mostly of low complexity, and more rarely, fleeting changes in ventricular repolarization during an IMT session.

    Measured: One day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. hemodynamic (blood pressure and heart rate) responses

    Measured: one day

  2. electrocardiographic pattern changes

    Measured: one day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Diseases and Lung Disease, run by Clínica de Medicina do Exercício at 1 site in Brazil.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

abnormal clinical responses (time frame: One day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Sep 2013.
