Abstract
To determine the efficacy of Inspiratory muscle trainer on arterial blood gases and the brain natriuretic peptide in patients with decompensated heart failure. Forty one men presented with decompensated heart failure were selected from the heart failure intensive care unit at National Heart Institute with age ranged from 45-55 years old. Patients were randomly assigned into two groups study group A: 21 patient in this group received the inspiratory muscle training using the inspiratory muscle trainer , traditional physical therapy circulatory and breathing exercise , in addition to medical treatment twice daily for 10 days only. Control group B: 20 patients in this group received a traditional physical therapy circulatory and breathing exercise, in addition to medical treatment twice daily for 10 days. There was a significant statistical improvement in post treatment values of BNP with 29.84%, PaO2 with 53% and a non-significant statistical improvement in post treatment PaCO2 with 7.22% in the study group (A) compared to control group (B). Inspiratory muscle trainer is effective in improving the brain natriuretic peptide and the arterial blood gases among patients with decompensated heart failure
