Ventilatory Muscle Strength Six Months After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients Submitted to Inspiratory Muscular Training Based on Anaerobioc Threshold: A Clinical Trial

Introduction Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is associated with a decline in ventilatory muscle strength and lung function. Inspiratory training (IMT) based on anaerobic threshold (AT) has been used to minimize the impact of CABG these parameters, but long-term unknown. Objective To test hypothesis that AT-based IMT improves inspiratory function even six months after CABG. Methods This randomized controlled clinical trial. In preoperative period, maximum [...]
