New home training aims to strengthen lungs for ALS patients

NCT ID NCT05913882

Summary

This study is testing whether two types of breathing exercises can help people with ALS cough more effectively and breathe better. Up to 39 participants will learn the exercises and practice them at home with weekly video check-ins from a therapist. Researchers will measure cough strength, breathing capacity, and ask about symptoms and quality of life to see if the training helps.
