About this study

Official title: Inspiratory Muscle Training in Respiratory Capacity, Life Quality, Lumbar Pain, Phase Angle and Body Composition in Patients With Fibromyalgia.

Context/background: people affected by fibromyalgia see their own life totally disturbed after the diagnosis. This disease also courses, apart from the functional and depressing worsening, with internal damage manifested by a cardio respiratory deterioration. There are not many clinical studies publications about this disease given that is considered a weird illness with short prognosis.

Objectives: to examine the effects of the inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on respiratory muscle strength, lumbar pain, quality of life, phase angle and body composition in patients with Fibromyalgia.

The participants of experimental group will conduct 5 sets of 10 inspirations per day, 5 days per week, through 8 weeks.

Read the detailed description

Methods: 40 volunteer patients, female, with fibromyalgia will take part of the cuasi-experimental study and they will be divided into two groups: an experimental group (n = 20) and a control group (n = 20). The Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (PIM), the quality of life, lumbar pain, phase angle and body composition will be measured.

Inspiratory muscle training with Powerbreath IMT device, for a duration of 8 weeks. Each day, each subject perform 5 sets of 10 inspirations, 5 days a week. The endurance of the device increases along the study, initiating with the 50% of their own maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) during the first week, 2nd week: 55% MIP, 3rd week: 60% MIP, 4th week: 65% MIP, 5th week: 70% MIP, 6th week: 75% MIP, 7th week: 80% MIP and 8th week:80% MIP

After 8 weeks, all participants will fill up again all scales and post training measurements will be taken.

What is being measured

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

  1. MIP

    Maximum Inspiratory Pressure. Inspiratory muscle strength will be measured in % by a POWER-breathe device

    Measured: Change from baseline inspiratory muscle strength at 8 weeks]

  2. Pain: Pressure algometry

    Pain will be measured with pressure algometry measured in Kg from 0 to 5kg.

    Measured: 8 week

  3. Pain :VAS

    Visual Analogic Scale. Pain will be measured with a visual analog scale from 0 to 10. 0 points is no pain.

    Measured: change from baseline after 8 week

  4. phase angle

    The phase angle, which is measured via bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), InBody 770 ,is a clinically important bioimpedance parameter used for nutritional assessment and evaluating the risk of various diseases. The phase angle was calculated automatically by the BIA device from these two components according to the following formula: phase angle (°) = (reactance/resistance) × (180°/π).

    Measured: 8 week

  5. Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (S-FIQ)

    The Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) is a brief 10-item, self-administered instrument that measures physical functioning, work status, depression, anxiety, sleep, pain, stiffness, fatigue, and well being. The total FIQ score is between 0-100. Thus, 0 represents the highest functional capacity and quality of life and 100 the worst state.

    Measured: 8 week

  6. Diaphragm tickness

    Diaphragm muscle thickness will be measured in mm by an ultrasound device

    Measured: Change from baseline diaphragm muscle thickness at 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inspiratory Muscle Training with Powerbreath IMT device. in people with Fibromyalgia, run by Universidad Francisco de Vitoria at 1 site in Spain.

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 1 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 2 Sep 2022. 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 Spain. 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?

MIP (time frame: Change from baseline inspiratory muscle strength at 8 weeks]). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Sep 2022.
