This study looks at how the vocal cords move during exercise in young adults who have trouble breathing while active. It may help researchers understand why this happens and how to better diagnose and treat it.
This trial tests whether a device-guided breathing exercise (Acapella) can help improve how air moves through your lungs after a critical illness. If you are recovering and stable, this training might help you breathe more evenly.
This study tests whether a special breathing exercise (functional inspiratory muscle training) can help people recover better after lung cancer surgery. If you are between 18 and 80, have completed your lung cancer treatment, and are now in remission, this program may improve your breathing and strength.
