Abstract

The aim of this review was to understand the influence of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on aerobic capacity and inspiratory muscle strength (IMS) in patients with heart failure (HF). We conducted a review of systematic reviews in PubMed and Web of Science up to August 2019. A total of 2053 articles were identified, of which 4 were selected for this review. The ‘Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews 2’ (AMSTAR-2) tool was used to assess the quality of the studies. In the included studies, a total of 10 different interventions with 250 patients (mean age range = 53-76 years) were examined. All the studies presented high confidence level (AMSTAR-2). IMT showed significant improvements in aerobic capacity (6-minute walk test: 46.66-71.04 meters; p<0.05 and VO2peak: 2.59-2.65 mL/kg-1/min-1; p<0.01) and IMS (maximal inspiratory pressure: 16.57-23.36 cmH2O, p<0.05) in this population compared to the control group and IMF in this population. IMT intervention programs lasting 12 weeks reported greater improvements in aerobic capacity and IMS compared to shorter intervention programs. IMT is an important and necessary treatment in cardiac rehabilitation of patients with HF. More studies are needed to analyze the effects of different ranges of the IMT characteristics.
