Inspiratory Muscle Training for Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Protocol Development and Feasibility of Home Practice by Sedentary Adults

Abstract: Background: Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) may improve respiratory and cardiovascular functions in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and is a potential alternative or adjunct treatment to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). IMT protocols were originally designed for athletes, however, we found some OSA patients could not perform the exercise, so we aimed for a more OSA-friendly protocol. Our feasibility criteria included (1) participants successfully managing the technique at home; (2) participants comp… Show more

“…This can gradually increase the training intensity 8 (from 55% to 75%) to improve patient tolerance and achieve a better exercise effect. This progressive loading has also improved apnea hypoventilation index for respiratory muscle strength 35 and OSA. 38 With the data available to date, 75% MIP training can be preferred when the population has a good exercise tolerance, achieving…”

“…The “gold standard” treatment for OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), being the first choice in moderate or severe cases [ 5 ]. However, CPAP adherence is often low, as patients experience it as intrusive and challenging to wear throughout the night [ 6 ].…”

“…About 60%-90% of lung cancer patients have different degrees of sleep disturbance after surgery. e reasons for this are, in addition to factors inherent to surgery such as change in living environment, medical traumatic stress, and the influence of drains, it is also related to the disruption of gas exchange and hypoxemia due to the disruption of the anatomical and physiological structure of the lung by lung surgery [3]. erefore, early and adequate breathing exercises are significantly important to the reconstruction of lung function, improvement of hypoxemia, and improvement of sleep quality.…”
