Summary

In patients with Type 2 diabetes, the risk of developing sarcopenia is three times higher compared to individuals with normal blood sugar levels. Sarcopenia is often accompanied by reduced physical activity, immobility, slow gait, and poor endurance. More importantly, previous studies have shown that sarcopenia leads to a decrease in mobility, which in turn results in reduced cardiopulmonary function, difficulty in breathing, and subsequently even less activity. In diabetic patients, this can cause poor control of blood sugar and lipids, as well as sarcopenic obesity, creating a vicious cycle. Therefore, preventing such a cycle is a crucial issue that needs attention. The incentive spirometer is widely used in physical, speech, and respiratory therapy, as well as in preventing postoperative pulmonary infections and improving sputum clearance. Consequently, this study aims to further confirm the role and effectiveness of incentive spirometry in improving lung function, activity endurance, and long-term blood sugar and lipid indices in patients with Type 2 diabetes combined with sarcopenia.
