Effect of Threshold Inspiratory Muscle Training on Functional Fitness and Respiratory Muscle Strength Compared to Incentive Spirometry in Children and Adolescents With Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Effect of Threshold Inspiratory Muscle Training on Functional Fitness and Respiratory Muscle Strength Compared to Incentive Spirometry in Children and Adolescents With Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Trial

BackgroundTo determine the effect of threshold inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on functional fitness and respiratory muscle strength (RMS) compared to incentive spirometry (IS) in children/adolescents with obesity.MethodsA total of 60 obese children/adolescents aged 8–15 years were randomized into...
