Condition: Inflammatory Myopathies · Sponsor: Józef Piłsudski University of Physical Education
Inflammatory myopathies are rare autoimmune diseases leading to progressive muscle weakness, often including the respiratory muscles. This study aims to investigate whether inspiratory muscle training (IMT) using a threshold device can improve functional status in patients with inflammatory myopathy. Thirty-three patients will undergo a 3-month home-based IMT program with progressive resistance. Functional capacity, inspiratory muscle strength, lung function, diaphragmatic mobility, fatigue, and quality of life will be assessed at baseline and during follow-up. The primary hypothesis is that IMT will enhance inspiratory muscle strength and translate into better functional performance and quality of life.
