Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine if inspiratory muscle training improves inspiratory muscle strength of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with inspiratory muscle weakness.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Complications
  • Inspiratory Muscle Weakness

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Inspiratory muscle training

For Inspiratory muscle training (IMT)patients carried out the IMT on a daily basis for eight weeks, with duration of 30 minutes and intensity corresponding to 30% of resting PImax, with a linear pressure resistance device (Threshold®). Weekly maximum inspiratory pressure (PImax) evaluations and workload adjustments were performed. Inspiratory load was adjusted on a weekly basis to maintain 30% of the subject's PImax. Training sessions were carried out at home for both groups and supervised once a week at the hospital.

BEHAVIORAL

Inpiratory muscle training placebo

Inspiratory muscle training was carried out on the same basis as in the intervention group but with no inspiratory load.
