Summary

Different diseases worldwide have repercussions at the level of multiple systems; but without a doubt a higher prevalence in the cardiopulmonary system. When a patient is hospitalized, he enters a continuous and often prolonged rest stay. Wherein, this physical inactivity plus its base pathology negatively impact its lung capacity. And low lung capacity has been shown to increase the risk of mortality, hospital stay, and complications. That said, the use of the device known as the "incentive inspirometer" is important, which to some extent there is no standardization of its use or applicability in a structured and planned manner. For this reason, the Japer method emerges as an idea; which, pretending through an exercise prescription through the incentive inspirometer according to 50% to 80% of the maximum inspiring capacity of the patient, improves their inspiring capacity. Having said this, the general objective was to analyze the effects of the JaPer method to improve lung capacity versus the traditional use of an inspirometer in hospitalized patients.

Conditions

  • Inspiratory Capacity

Interventions

OTHER

Respiratory muscle training 1 (Experimental Group)

The participant must perform a series of exercises that will be the same for the two groups in this investigation. In addition to the exercises, this group will use the incentive inspirometer device with a new method created by the main author called the Method JaPer. For the method JaPer, the participant sits and holds the device. Then put the mouthpiece of the inspirometer in the mouth. Be sure to make a good seal on the mouthpiece with your lips. And exhale normally until you run out of air. And after that, inhale slowly as much as possible. This maximum value will be taken as an indicative parameter of its maximum inspiratory capacity and 50 and 80% for 1 set of 10 repetitions at 50% of their maximum value, 2 sets of 10 repetitions at 60% of its maximum capacity and ends with 1 series at 80% of its maximum capacity. It is highlighted that in each series before finishing and without stopping to rest, the participant must do 5 repetitions at 100% maximum capacity

OTHER

Respiratory muscle training 2 (Control Group)

Training of respiratory muscles under the protocol of conventional use. Which is that the participant sits and holds the device. Then put the mouthpiece of the inspirometer in the mouth. Be sure to make a good seal on the mouthpiece with your lips. And exhale (exhale) normally until you run out of air. And after that, inhale (inspire) slowly as much as possible. Repeat 10 times and use these indications for 3 sets. In addition, participants must perform the same breathing exercises that are identical for experimental group.
