Sponsor's own description

This is a cross-sectional study to determine the optimal inspiratory muscle training (IMT) intensity for stroke survivors. Participants will breathe through a pressure threshold inspiratory loading device with varying loads in random order. Each IMT intensity protocol consists of 10 breaths. During the test, accessory inspiratory muscle activity will be measured with surface electromyography (sEMG) and diaphragm thickness will be used to assessed with ultrasonography. Repeated-measures ANOVA will be used for statistical analysis to determine the most effective training intensity for future study.
