Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to enhance inspiratory muscle strength and quality of life for liver transplant candidates by using specific breathing exercises over three months.
- Participants included 23 in the control group and 14 in the intervention group, with both groups showing improvement in maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), but no significant difference between the two groups.
- The intervention group had a lower root mean square (RMS) of the diaphragm and better functional capacity, but both groups scored higher in health-related quality of life after three months without significant differences between them.
