It can increase inspiratory muscle strength and endurance, improves exercise capacity and quality of life (QOL), and decreases the perception of dyspnea (POD) for adults with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Though the pathophysiology in COPD and bronchiectasis are different, there are some similarities in clinical presentation. In COPD patients, lung hyperinflation induces functional weakness of the inspiratory muscle and increases elastic load to breathing and intrinsic positive end expiratory pressure. Patients with bronchiectasis shows reduced ratio of FEV1/FVC, reduced FEV1, and normal or slightly reduced FVC, which indicate that airways are blocked by mucus. However, there has been no study that used IMT as a training modality to determine its effect in bronchiectasis. The clinical relevance of increased respiratory muscle strength per se by IMT alone is unknown. This study tried to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of home-based threshold training and examined if the effects of IMT extends to clinical outcomes such as activities of daily living and QOL in bronchiectasis patients.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '80 Years', 'minimumAge': '40 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Bronchiectasis confirmed by clinical history, pulmonary function test, and high resolution computed tomography\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Had recent exacerbation within six weeks\n* Use of corticosteroid\n* With poor consciousness level\n* Have cerebro-vascular or neuro-muscular disorders'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00952718', 'briefTitle': 'Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training in Patients With Bronchiectasis', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Chang Gung Memorial Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training in Patients With Bronchiectasis', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'CMRP-IRB-97-0458B'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control', 'description': 'No intervention.'}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Inspiratory muscle training', 'description': 'With intervention.', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Inspiratory muscle training']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Inspiratory muscle training', 'type': 'OTHER', 'otherNames': ['Pulmonary Rehabilitation'], 'description': 'A pressure threshold device (Threshold® IMT HS730, RESPIRONICS Inc, Cedar Grove, NJ, USA) was used for the inspiratory muscle training program.
