Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of preoperative inspiratory muscle training in patients with grade III obesity undergoing bariatric surgery. It will be a double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial with volunteers allocated in two groups that will be compared according to postoperative evolution (pulmonary complications, lung function, strength and endurance of the respiratory muscles and respiratory system resistance).

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

IMT group

Patients will be instructed to do a daily inspiratory muscle training at home with the preset load at 50% of the maximal inspiratory pressure, during 30 minutes for 4 weeks before bariatric surgery. They will also receive the routine physical therapy in the post operative period.

OTHER

Control group

Patients will be instructed to do a daily inspiratory muscle training at home with the minimal inspiratory load of the respiratory resistance device, during 30 minutes for 4 weeks before bariatric surgery. They will also receive the routine physical therapy in the post operative period.
