Trial design

52 participants in 2 patient groups

patients

Description:

Maximal mouth pressure will be evaluated for determine respiratory muscle strength, m. pectoralis, m. serratus anterior, m. sternocloideumasteoideus and quadriceps muscles strengths will be measured to evaluate accessory respiratory muscle strength, London chest activity of daily living scale will be done for assessment of dyspnea and six minute walk test will be used for determination of functionally capacity

Treatment:

Diagnostic Test: patient assessment

Control group
