Effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training associated with a cardiac rehabilitation program on sympathetic activity and functional capacity in patients with heart failure: a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Abstract: Background: Individuals affected by heart failure (HF) may present fatigue, dyspnea, respiratory muscle weakness, and sympathetic activity hyperstimulation of the myocardium, among other symptoms. Conducting cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs can be associated with inspiratory muscle training. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of inspiratory muscular training (IMT) associated with a CR program on modulating myocardial sympathetic activity and maximal functional capacity, submaximal functiona… Show more

“…This may be due to a lack of information about the therapy's impact on patients' ability to do daily tasks. (20) Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) is another form of exercise that has been demonstrated to be useful in the therapy of various disorders. IMT has been connected to positive effects on the autonomic nervous system (ANS).…”
