Inspiratory muscle training in patients with diabetic autonomic neuropathy: a randomized clinical trial

Authors: Diogo Machado Kaminski, Beatriz D. Schaan, Antônio Marcos Vargas da Silva, Pedro Paulo Soares, Pedro Dal Lago

Published in: Clinical Autonomic Research | Issue 4/2015

Abstract

Aims and methods

We evaluated the effects of an 8-week inspiratory muscle training (IMT, n = 5) or placebo IMT (P-IMT, n = 5) on maximal respiratory pressures, pulmonary function, functional capacity, and cardiac autonomic control in patients with type 2 diabetes and diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN).

Results and conclusions

The IMT group had a greater increase in maximum inspiratory pressure as compared to P-IMT (p < 0.05). The IMT improved inspiratory muscle strength in patients with DAN.
