Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Physiological Function and Clinical Outcomes After Lung Transplant
Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Physiological Function and Clinical Outcomes After Lung Transplant: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Mayo Clinic
30 participants
May 10, 2021
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The purpose of this research is to study the effect of training the inspiratory muscles (i.e. the muscle that allow you to breath-in) on exercise capacity, quality of life, and short-term clinical outcomes in patients post lung transplant.
