Effects of Induced Inspiratory Muscle Fatigue on Functional Mobility of Older Adults
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Inspiratory muscle fatigue for Healthy Older Adults. Completed, enrolled 70 participants across 1 site.
Detailed 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.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Muscle training according to the protocol that tends to induce inspiratory muscle fatigue. (60-80% MIP). Inspiratory resistive loading by starting at 60-80% (MIP) increasing every 10 minutes by 10% then measure MIP, until MIP measurement decrease of more than 10% from baseline will be performed. When report a lower score of MIP and participants could no longer worked out, performed the functional mobility tests and see if there any variation.
