Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to investigate i) the effect of 3 weeks IMT to adults post-stroke to maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and ii) the effects of 3 weeks IMT to the degree of dependency in activities of daily living, endurance in gait, fatigue, voice volume, phonation endurance, and expiratory function. Methods/Design: Randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing IMT to conventional neurorehabilitation (usual practise). 80 patients, with reduced maximal inspiration pressure (MIP) hospitalized at a specialized neurorehabilitation hospital in Denmark will be included.

Clinical Trial Description

Background: Stroke results in varying disabilities physical, cognitive, emotional and/or social both in short term and long term. Motor impairments are significantly persistent consequences post-stroke among these are decreased respiratory muscle function, decreased ability to expand thorax and postural dysfunction. These deficits influence the patient's ability in daily activities, fatigue, endurance and quality of life. Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) is training to improve the strength and endurance of diaphragm and the external intercostal muscles. The objective of this study is to investigate i) the effect of 3 weeks IMT to adults post-stroke to maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and ii) the effects of 3 weeks IMT to the degree of dependency in activities of daily living, endurance in gait, fatigue, voice volume, phonation endurance, and expiratory function. Methods/Design: Randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing IMT to conventional neurorehabilitation (usual practise). 80 patients, with reduced maximal inspiration pressure (MIP) hospitalized at a specialized neurorehabilitation hospital in Denmark will be included. The intervention group will add-on IMT sessions exercising at 30 % of MIP. Patients in the intervention group perform 2 sessions a day (One session of IMT with IMT threshold flute consists of 2 times 15 inspirations in normal breathing rhythm (5-10 min)), 7 days a week for 3 weeks. Training can be with or without supervision of physiotherapist. ;

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.
