          Abstract

          Objective

          To investigate the efficiency of short-term inspiratory muscle training program associated with combined aerobic and resistance exercise on respiratory muscle strength, functional capacity and quality of life in patients who underwent coronary artery bypass and are in the phase II cardiac rehabilitation program.

          Methods

          A prospective, quasi-experimental study with 24 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass and were randomly assigned to two groups in the Phase II cardiac rehabilitation program: inspiratory muscle training program associated with combined training (aerobic and resistance) group (GCR + IMT, n=12) and combined training with respiratory exercises group (GCR, n=12), over a period of 12 weeks, with two sessions per week. Before and after intervention, the following measurements were obtained: maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures (PImax and PEmax), peak oxygen consumption (peak VO 2) and quality of life scores. Data were compared between pre- and post-intervention at baseline and the variation between the pre- and post-phase II cardiac rehabilitation program using the Student's t-test, except the categorical variables, which were compared using the Chi-square test. Values of P<0.05 were considered statistically significant.

          Results

          Compared to GCR, the GCR + IMT group showed larger increments in PImax ( P<0.001), PEmax ( P<0.001), peak VO 2 ( P<0.001) and quality of life scores ( P<0.001).

          Conclusion

          The present study demonstrated that the addition of inspiratory muscle training, even when applied for a short period, may potentiate the effects of combined aerobic and resistance training, becoming a simple and inexpensive strategy for patients who underwent coronary artery bypass and are in phase II cardiac rehabilitation.

          Objetivo:

          Avaliar os efeitos de um programa de treinamento muscular inspiratório em curto prazo associado ao exercício aeróbio e resistido na força muscular respiratória, capacidade funcional e qualidade de vida de pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio, na Fase II da Reabilitação Cardíaca.

          Métodos:

          Trata-se de um estudo quase-experimental, prospectivo, com amostra de 24 pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio alocados aleatoriamente para Fase II da Reabilitação Cardíaca em dois grupos: grupo de treinamento muscular inspiratório associado ao treinamento combinado (aeróbio e resistido) (GRC + TMI, n=12) e grupo treinamento combinado e exercícios respiratórios (GRC, n=12) durante um período de 12 semanas, com 2 sessões semanais. Antes e após a intervenção, as seguintes mensurações foram obtidas: pressão inspiratória e expiratória máxima (PImáx e PEmáx), consumo de oxigênio de pico (VO 2pico) e escore de qualidade de vida. Os dados foram comparados entre o momento pré e pós-intervenção na linha de base e a variação entre o pré e pós-programa de reabilitação cardíaca com uso do teste t de Student, exceto as variáveis categóricas, que foram comparadas pelo teste de qui-quadrado. Foi considerado um P<0,05.

          Resultados:

          Comparado ao GRC, o GRC + TMI apresentou maior incremento tanto na PImáx ( P<0,001) quanto na PEmáx ( P<0,001), no VO 2pico ( P<0,001) e na qualidade de vida ( P<0,001).

          Conclusão:

          Demonstrou-se que a adição do programa de treinamento muscular inspiratório, mesmo quando aplicada por um curto período, pode complementar os efeitos do exercício aeróbio combinado ao resistido, tornando-se uma estratégia benéfica para pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio na Fase II da reabilitação cardíaca.

          Reference values for lung function tests: II. Maximal respiratory pressures and voluntary ventilation

          The strength of the respiratory muscles can be evaluated from static measurements (maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures, MIP and MEP) or inferred from dynamic maneuvers (maximal voluntary ventilation, MVV). Although these data could be suitable for a number of clinical and research applications, no previous studies have provided reference values for such tests using a healthy, randomly selected sample of the adult Brazilian population. With this main purpose, we prospectively evaluated 100 non-smoking subjects (50 males and 50 females), 20 to 80 years old, selected from more than 8,000 individuals. Gender-specific linear prediction equations for MIP, MEP and MVV were developed by multiple regression analysis: age and, secondarily, anthropometric measurements explained up to 56% of the variability of the dependent variables. The most cited previous studies using either Caucasian or non-Caucasian samples systematically underestimated the observed values of MIP (P<0.05). Interestingly, the self-reported level of regular physical activity and maximum aerobic power correlates strongly with both respiratory and peripheral muscular strength (knee extensor peak torque) (P<0.01). Our results, therefore, provide a new frame of reference to evaluate the normalcy of some useful indexes of respiratory muscle strength in Brazilian males and females aged 20 to 80.

            Inspiratory muscle training in patients with heart failure and inspiratory muscle weakness: a randomized trial.

            This study sought to evaluate the effects of inspiratory muscle training in inspiratory muscle strength, as well as in functional capacity, ventilatory responses to exercise, recovery oxygen uptake kinetics, and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and inspiratory muscle weakness. Patients with CHF may have reduced strength and endurance in inspiratory muscles, which may contribute to exercise intolerance and is associated with a poor prognosis. Thirty-two patients with CHF and weakness of inspiratory muscles (maximal inspiratory pressure [Pi(max)] <70% of predicted) were randomly assigned to a 12-week program of inspiratory muscle training (IMT, 16 patients) or to a placebo-inspiratory muscle training (P-IMT, 16 patients). The following measures were obtained before and after the program: Pi(max) at rest and 10 min after maximal exercise; peak oxygen uptake, circulatory power, ventilatory oscillations, and oxygen kinetics during early recovery (VO2/t-slope); 6-min walk test; and quality of life scores. The IMT resulted in a 115% increment Pi(max), 17% increase in peak oxygen uptake, and 19% increase in the 6-min walk distance. Likewise, circulatory power increased and ventilatory oscillations were reduced. The VO2/t-slope was improved during the recovery period, and quality of life scores improved. In patients with CHF and inspiratory muscle weakness, IMT results in marked improvement in inspiratory muscle strength, as well as improvement in functional capacity, ventilatory response to exercise, recovery oxygen uptake kinetics, and quality of life.

              Inspiratory muscle training improves blood flow to resting and exercising limbs in patients with chronic heart failure.

              We tested the hypothesis that inspiratory muscle loading could result in exaggerated peripheral vasoconstriction in resting and exercising limbs and that inspiratory muscle training (IMT) could attenuate this effect in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and inspiratory muscle weakness. Inspiratory muscle training improves functional capacity of patients with CHF, but the mechanisms of this effect are unknown. Eighteen patients with CHF and inspiratory muscle weakness (maximal inspiratory pressure <70% of predicted) and 10 healthy volunteers participated in the study. Inspiratory muscle loading was induced by the addition of inspiratory resistance of 60% of maximal inspiratory pressure, while blood flow to the resting calf (CBF) and exercising forearm (FBF) were measured by venous occlusion plethysmography. For the patients with CHF, blood flow measurements as well as ultrasound determination of diaphragm thickness were made before and after a 4-week program of IMT. With inspiratory muscle loading, CHF patients demonstrated a more marked reduction in resting CBF and showed an attenuated rise in exercising FBF when compared with control subjects. After 4 weeks of IMT, CHF patients presented hypertrophy of the diaphragm and improved resting CBF and exercise FBF with inspiratory muscle loading. In patients with CHF and inspiratory muscle weakness, inspiratory muscle loading results in marked reduction of blood flow to resting and exercising limbs. Inspiratory muscle training improves limb blood flow under inspiratory loading in these patients.
