Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To analyze the effect of Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training, to improve respiratory muscle strength & pulmonary function and thereby prolonging spontaneous breathing periods to facilitate ventilator weaning. STUDY DESIGN: Pre-test & Post-test experimental study. METHODOLOGY: 30 mechanically ventilated patients were assigned into two groups with 15 patients each. One control group underwent Standard weaning technique along with diaphragmatic breathing exercise and another experimental group underwent Standard weaning technique along with Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training [IMST]. IMST consist of 3 to 5 sets of 6 repetitions breathing for 4 sessions per day. The training was conducted for one day and the arterial blood gas [ABG] before and after training was noted. Also spontaneous breathing period of the training day and next day was noted. RESULTS: The data were analyzed using paired and independent ‘t’ test. There is significant improvement in PO2 and Spontaneous breathing period [SBP] in experimental group. Also there is significant difference in PO2 and SBP between two groups at 5% level of significance. There is no significant difference in PH between groups and no significant improvement in PCO2 in experimental group. CONCLUSION: Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training can be incorporated with Standard weaning technique to facilitate ventilator weaning.
