Summary

This study will investigate whether inspiratory muscle training in patients with end stage renal failure can improve strength and function.

Conditions

  • Renal Failure
  • Chronic Renal Insufficiency

Interventions

DEVICE

Inspiratory muscle training (URES HS730)

It will be set at 40% of the subjects baseline maximal inspiratory pressure and increased by 10% each week by an unblinded assistant. All subjects were trained with these devices for 8-10 breaths, 3 times a day, everyday for 6 weeks

DEVICE

Sham inspiratory muscle training (URES HS730)

Subjects in the control group underwent sham training, using the same device with the diaphragm removed, thus providing no resistance. They were not given frequency or duration but told to use the device when desired.
