Summary

This study will evaluate the profilatic effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on functional capacity, respiratory muscle strength, postoperative pulmonary complications and days of hospitalization (PPC) in patients submitted to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG).

Inspiratory Muscle Training

The inspiratory muscle training (IMT) will be carried out in the IG with Threshold® IMT (Respironics New Jersey, Inc) consisting of a unidirectional flow control valve which assures the constant resistance (linear load) between 7 and 41cmH20. The IMT will be carried out in the sitting position with a load of 30% of the MIP during the two weeks preceding the surgery, seven days a week, twice daily in three series of ten repetitions with a 30 second interval between series, under the supervision of a physiotherapist. A load of 15% of the MIP was used only on the first day of training in order for the individual to adapt to the equipment. Subsequently, the 30% MIP load will be applied and readjusted according to the new MIP values determined every four days.
