Özet
Objective: To explore the effectiveness of breathing-enhanced upper extremity exercises on the respiratory function of patients with multiple sclerosis.Design: Randomized controlled study of six-week duration.Subjects: Forty patients with multiple sclerosis (age 39.2 ± 7 years; Kurtzke Expanded Disability Status Scale scores: 4.51 ± 1.55) randomly divided into two groups.Methods: The training group followed a six-week home training programme designed to strengthen accessory respiratory muscles. Controls performed no exercises. All subjects submitted to baseline and post-training tests of spirometry, respiratory muscle strength and 6-minute walking. They were also assessed with pulmonary dysfunction and exertion fatigue indices.Results: Spirometry revealed clear improvement in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1) (+13%, P = 0 …
