Abstract
Objective: To assess the therapeutic efficacy of inspiratory muscle trainer on pulmonary function capacity in patients with inhalation injury patients. Material and Methods: Forty male patients suffering from inhalation injury were been included in this study, their ages ranged from 20 - 40 years old. These patients were randomly subdivided into two equal groups (twenty patients for each group (A) = (Exercise Group) This group was composed of 20 patients suffering from inhalation injury, and were represented the group who were received inspiratory muscle training in addition to routine chest physiotherapy in form of (deep breathing, coughing and early ambulation) three times per week for four weeks. group (B) = (Control Group): This group was composed of 20 patients suffering from inhalation injury, and were represent the control group who were not received inspiratory muscle training but this group were received routine chest physiotherapy alone. Results: According to unpaired t-test and when comparing the two groups (A and B) before treatment, the X’ ± SD values were 2.26 ± 0.48 and 2.41 ± 0.58 respectively which indicated no significant improvement (p= 0.000), while comparing the two groups after four weeks of treatment, the X’ ± SD values were 3.5 ± 0.46 and 3.07 ± 0.56 respectively which indicated a significant improvement (p= 0.005) in favor of group A (MD= 0.43) and % of improvement was 12.28 %. Conclusion: it was concluded that inspiratpry muscle trainer had positive and significant effect on pulmonary function capacity in patient with inhalation injury
