New breathing training aims to boost cough strength in ALS patients
NCT ID NCT05913882
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two types of breathing exercises together in people with ALS. The goal is to see if these exercises can improve cough strength and breathing, and reduce shortness of breath. Up to 34 people with ALS will participate, and the study also looks at how the exercises affect quality of life for both patients and caregivers.
