- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 100% increase in electromyographic activity of the inspiratory muscles ( sternocleidomastoid , intercostal and diaphragm) after six weeks of inspiratory muscle training , as measured by EMG , which indicates better recruitment and muscle electrical activity ; increase of at least 15% in thickness and mobility of the diaphragm evaluated by ultrasonography .<br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Increased Maximum Inspiratory Pressure at 200 % assessed by the manometer , which indicates greater inspiratory muscle strength after six weeks of inspiratory muscle training . In addition to an expected 15% increase in the distance measured by the six-minute walk test , indicating better functional capacity .<br>
