Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
This work was designed to assess the effect of respiratory muscle training on ventilatory functions of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients . . with the hypothesis that there might be no effect of using Respiratory muscle training on ventilatory functions of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease patients .
Sixty patients with spirometric evidence of significant chronic airflow limitation with a diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) of both sexes were enrolled for this study.
