Effect of Resistive Inspiratory Muscle Training Optimizing Lung Function in Spinal Cord Injury
Sponsor: University of Dhaka
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of resistive inspiratory muscle training (RIMT) in optimizing lung function in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). It will also learn about the safety and impact of RIMT on health-related quality of life in this population. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does RIMT improve respiratory function in individuals with SCI? What impact does RIMT have on the health-related quality of life of participants? What are the perceived exertion or dyspnoea levels in participants undergoing RIMT? Researchers will compare RIMT to conventional respiratory physiotherapy to see if RIMT works to enhance lung function and improve overall respiratory outcomes in individuals with SCI. Participants will: Perform resistive inspiratory muscle training along with conventional respiratory physiotherapy 5 days a week for 4 weeks.
