Primary outcomePrimary: Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (MIP) and Maximum Expiratory Pressure (MEP) at 8 Weeks — 60; 71; 84; 69 cmH2O — p=0.005
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether inspiratory muscle training could improve and/or prevent the deterioration of inspiratory muscle strength, clinical cardiopulmonary outcome, systemic immunologic responses and quality of life in patients with bronchiectasis.
