Summary

The study outlines burn injury impact, emphasizes need for long-term rehabilitation. Study assesses inspiratory muscle training efficacy in improving respiratory strength, lung function, and exercise capacity in adult burn patients.

Detailed description

The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of adding inspiratory muscle training to pulmonary rehabilitation in adult burn patients. Fifty-two participants were randomly assigned to either inspiratory muscle training plus pulmonary rehabilitation or pulmonary rehabilitation alone for 8 weeks. Inspiratory muscle training consisted of using a Powerbreathe device for inspiratory muscle strengthening.
