Core Tip
Core Tip: Inspiratory muscle training with a telerehabilitation device motivated a patient to participate actively and be more responsible for his health. The test of incremental respiratory endurance allows remote monitoring of the patient’s inspiratory muscle training in real-time, while the training goal is automatically adjusted based on a patient’s inspiratory performance and status before the start of each inspiratory muscle training session. Also, the novel sustained maximal inspiratory pressure may be a more sensitive predictor of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease severity than the current commonly used maximal inspiratory pressure.
