SUMMARY:

In the literature, in the last 40 years some test modalities have been developed to assess the resistance of respiratory muscles, especially inspiratory muscles. The tests and prototypes of devices have always sought to assess two aspects that are relatively distinct, such as fatigue and resistance. There are several gaps in the literature on the best way to assess the resistance of respiratory muscles. Despite the importance of the measure, the previous studies using different models, of assessed resistance of respiratory muscles were based on devices, or prototypes and with a low number of subjects, which makes interpretation of the results very difficult. Also in recent decades, significant progress has been made in understanding sleep-disordered breathing and its consequences. There is evidence that treatment with positive airway pressure, facilitating the activity of the respiratory muscles, improves and controls the disease, but there is no solid evidence that this efficacy is repeated in special populations, such as stroke sequelae. This work aimed to develop a device within the scope of Technological Innovation and carry out two other studies on one on Health Technology Assessment (ATS) and another methodological clinical scientific study. The development of the device is in the final stages for filing a patent. As products of this PhD work we present: a product related to Health Technology Assessment: (i) a systematic review scientific article with meta - analysis (published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews) and a second clinical article related to the theme (published in. Frontiers in Physiology). The device to be patented is a device capable of evaluating the resistance of the respiratory muscles through different protocols, while the first publication is about evidencing the effects of the use of positive pressure in stroke patients, as a way to facilitate respiratory muscle activity and breathing; the second article deals with the analysis of respiratory muscle resistance techniques, through resistance tests, as a predictor of respiratory function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
