简要总结
Background: Respiratory health problems are one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in adult people with acquired brain injury (ABI). The influence of respiratory muscle training has not yet been studied in this population group. The objective of the study was to evaluate and compare the efficacy of two protocols with respiratory muscle training, inspiratory muscle training vs expiratory muscle training, to improve respiratory strength and pulmonary function in adults with CP.
Methods: The study is a controlled, randomised, double-blind trial and with allocation concealment. 26 ABI patients will be recruited and randomly distributed in the inspiratory muscle training group (IMT) and the expiratory muscle training group (EMT). Over an 8-week period an IMT or EMT protocol was followed 5 days/week, 5 series of 1-minute with 1-minute rest between them. IMT trained with a load of 50% of the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and EMT with 50% of the maximum expiratory pressure (MEP). Respiratory strength and pulmonary function were evaluated.

研究组 & 干预措施
Inspiratory muscle training group (IMT)
Inspiratory muscle training at 50% of MIP, the training load was set each 2 weeks to keep 50% of MIP.
干预措施: Inspiratory muscle training (Device)
Expiratory muscle training group (EMT)
Expiratory muscle training at 50% of MEP, following the same rules as HIT.
干预措施: Expiratory muscle training (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Inspiratory muscle strength
时间窗: 8 weeks.
It was measured using the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) with a pressure measurer (Elka PM-15, Laboliser, S.A., Barcelona, Spain), from residual volume and total lung capacity. Unit of measure, centimeter of water (cmH2O).
Expiratory muscle strength
时间窗: 8 weeks.
It was measured using the maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) with a pressure measurer (Elka PM-15, Laboliser, S.A., Barcelona, Spain), from residual volume and total lung capacity. Unit of measure, centimeter of water (cmH2O).
次要结局
- Pulmonary volume.(8 weeks.)
