Standardization of IMT Dosage (UTIT) in Mechanical Ventilation. (UTIT-IMT)
Standardization of Inspiratory Muscle Training Dose in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial Using the Total Inspiratory Work Unit (UTIT).
Respiratory muscle weakness prolongs mechanical ventilation (MV) and delays weaning. Currently, there is no standardized dosage for Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) in the ICU. This study aims to define an optimal IMT dosage using a new metric called "Total Inspiratory Work Unit" (UTIT), which integrates intensity, repetition, and frequency.
The study compares three daily dosage regimens (1,000 UTIT, 2,000 UTIT, and 3,000 UTIT) adjusted daily based on the patient's Negative Inspiratory Force (NIF). The goal is to determine the optimal dose-response relationship for improving inspiratory muscle strength (PiMax) and reducing the duration of mechanical ventilation.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving
This is a randomized clinical trial conducted at Hospital H+ Querétaro. Eligible intubated patients will be assigned to one of three intervention groups differing in the daily volume of inspiratory work.
The "Total Inspiratory Work Unit" (UTIT) is defined as: UTIT = (Target NIF %) x (Number of Breaths per Session) x (Number of Sessions per Day).
Intensity is adjusted daily to maintain the target UTIT dose. The study utilizes a threshold loading device (POWERbreathe K5) with real-time feedback. Safety parameters (SpO2, HR, FR, MAP) are monitored continuously during sessions. The intervention continues until successful weaning, extubation, ICU discharge, or death.

Experimenteel: Low Dose Group (1,000 UTIT)
Participants receive a daily IMT dosage of 1,000 Total Inspiratory Work Units (UTIT). Intensity: 30% of the patient's baseline Negative Inspiratory Force (NIF). Repetitions: 30 breaths per session. Frequency: 1 session per day |
Respiratory rehabilitation training using a specific threshold loading device (POWERbreathe K5) with real-time feedback.
The intervention aims to strengthen inspiratory muscles (diaphragm and intercostals).
The daily dosage is calculated using the Total Inspiratory Work Unit (UTIT) formula, adjusted daily based on the patient's Negative Inspiratory Force (NIF).

Experimenteel: Intermediate Dose Group (2,000 UTIT)
Participants receive a daily IMT dosage of 2,000 Total Inspiratory Work Units (UTIT). Intensity: 50% of the patient's baseline Negative Inspiratory Force (NIF). Repetitions: 60 breaths per session. Frequency: 2 sessions per day. |
