U.S., May 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07571642) titled 'Respiratory Muscle Training in the ICU: IMT vs Diaphragmatic NMES' on April 11.
Brief Summary: This study aimed to compare the effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) and Diaphragmatic Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) on inspiratory muscle strength, mechanical ventilator parameters, and functional levels in intubated intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Thirty-two intubated patients were divided into two groups: the IMT group and the NMES group. In the IMT group, IMT was administered twice a day in addition to routine physiotherapy. In the NMES group, electrical stimulation was applied to the diaphragm muscle for 40 min...
