Effects of Induced Inspiratory Muscle Fatigue on Functional Mobility of

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of study was to evaluate the effects of inspiratory induced muscle fatigue on functional mobility of older adults. Though, limited literature exists regarding inspiratory muscle fatigue and its consequences on functional activities of daily living and balance. Yet, it is not clear how improvement in inspiratory muscle strength is related with improvement in functional mobility.

Clinical Trial Description

Respiratory muscle fatigue was first described in 1977. Inspiratory muscle relaxation rates are known to slow following induction of fatigue. Inspiratory muscle fatigue was induced by threshold loading at 80 percent of (Maximum Inspiratory Pressure) Pimax until the subjects were unable to generate the target pressure. Inspiratory muscle fatigue (IMF) is proposed to negotiation exercise performance, probably via a respiratory muscle metaboreflex that impairs blood flow to working muscles, thereby accelerating the progress of fatigue in these muscles. Respiratory muscle fatigue revealed that a maximal inspiratory load of 50% could quickly fatigue both the inspiration and expiration muscles. Increased inspiratory muscle work may induce fatigue of the respiratory muscles, as well as of the non-respiratory muscles by central alterations at spinal and supraspinal level. Also there is an association between respiratory muscle dysfunction and physical performance in older adults. The abnormalities of respiratory movements may be dependable clinical signs of inspiratory muscle fatigue, mostly when accompanied by tachypnea and hypercapnia. Fatigue is distinguished from weakness, a decrease in force generation that is static and not reversible by rest, though muscle weakness may be a susceptibility to muscle fatigue. This study will contribute to determine the effects of respiratory muscle fatigue on balance and functional mobility with healthy older adults. To further understand this relationship, a battery of tests (considered as gold standard) will be performed after induced inspiratory muscles fatigue. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
