Sub Acute Critical Ill Mechanical Ventilation Respiratory Muscle Training Respiratory Muscle Strength Rapid Shallow Breathing Index

Description

Patients on mechanical ventilation often experience rapid diaphragm atrophy on the second day, resulting in muscle fiber changes, respiratory muscle weakness. Clinical studies have explored enhancing diaphragm and respiratory muscle strength and endurance through inspiratory muscle, expiratory muscle, and combined respiratory muscle training. This study was to determine if inspiratory muscle training significantly facilitates liberation from mechanical ventilation and improves muscle strength when compared to without IMT among subacute critically ill adult patients.
