About this study

Official title: Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training Hihg Intensity Linked to Cardiac Rehabilitation in Patients on Exercise Performance in the Post-operative of Coronary Artery Bypasssurgery: a Randomized Clinical Trial

Heart surgery procedures are still widely used worldwide for the treatment of patients with heart problems, and rates of complications in the postoperative period related to them remain high. In these patients, physical conditioning programs result in improved functional capacity, and reducing the heart rate and systolic blood pressure. The inspiratory muscle training is also emerging as a valuable strategy in the treatment of cardiac patients. The study of the interaction between cardiac rehabilitation and high intensity IMT about these changes is not yet understood in this population. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of inspiratory muscle training high intensity associated with cardiac rehabilitation exercise performance of patients in the postoperative period of CABG surgery.

Read the detailed description

It is a controlled, randomized clinical trial in which patients were randomly assigned randomly after referral to cardiac rehabilitation: Group 1 IMT-HI, group 2 - IMT-HI control. The evaluator of outcomes is blinded as to groups. The study protocol lasts 36 sessions for both groups. The group 1 patients performs cardiac rehabilitation protocol for 40 minutes with cardio and stretching and also inspiratory muscle training protocol of high intensity with 50% load increase in maximal inspiratory pressure during the first two weeks, 60% of MIP in third and fourth week, 70% of MIP in the fifth and sixth week and 80% MIP in the seventh and eighth week. The group 2 patients only perform the cardiac rehabilitation protocol for 40 minutes with aerobic exercise and stretching.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
IMT+ExerciseExperimentalThe inspiratory muscle training protocol (IMT) high intensity is achieved with a device with linear load pressure (POWERbreathe Plus Light Resistance®, SP, BR) that allows loads up to -90cmH2O. IMT is performed for 36 sessions (12 weeks) with weekly frequency of three times a week under supervision prior to the cardiac rehabilitation. The training protocol consists of five series with 10 repetitions each set until the 8th week with increase in the number of sets of repetitions of the 8th to 12th week, with two minutes or according to patient feedback using the modified Borg scale . Aerobic training lasts 40 minutes (5 minutes heating 30 minute workout and 5 minutes desaqueciemento. During training vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure (BP) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) are evaluated and the feeling of effort the patient should not exceed the level of 8 according to the modified Borg scale.

What is being measured

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

  1. Six-minute walk test

    The patient is set to walk in a corridor of 30 meters delimited cones for six minutes in order to go as far as possible. Every minute the patient is stimulated by the evaluator.

    Measured: 1 week, up to 4 week, up to 8 week, through study completion, an average of 12 week

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. 30-s chair-stand

    With the patient sitting in a chair with 45cm tall, with your feet apart and flat on the floor and arms crossed against his chest, the patient will be encouraged to get up and return to a sitting position as many times as possible in 30 seconds, It is registered the maximum number of repetitions.

    Measured: 1 week, up to 4 week, up to 8 week, through study completion, an average of 12 week

  2. respiratory muscle strength test

    Measured: 1 week, up to 4 week, up to 8 week, through study completion, an average of 12 week

  3. Quality of life

    Brazilian version of the Quality of Life Questionnaire - SF-36

    Measured: 1 week, through study completion, an average of 12 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing IMT - POWERbreathe Plus Light Resistance®, SP, BR in people with Cardiovascular Diseases, run by Federal University of Health Science of Porto Alegre 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 28 Apr 2017. 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?

Six-minute walk test (time frame: 1 week, up to 4 week, up to 8 week, through study completion, an average of 12 week). 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 28 Apr 2017.
