Parameter | Upper Tertile of MIP Change, Mean±SD | Lower Tertiles of MIP Change, Mean±SD | P Value |
---|---|---|---|
Change in workload, W | 1.2±8.2 | −0.7±11.8 | 0.71 |
Change in peak VO2, L/min | −0.5±−1.7 | −1.9±3.6 | 0.26 |
Change in VT, L | 139.0±156.5 | −106.3±305.9 | 0.50 |
Change in VE/VCO2 | 0.1±2.4 | −3.6±5.0 | 0.16 |
MIP indicates maximal inspiratory pressure; VCO2, carbon dioxide production; VE, minute ventilation; VO2, oxygen consumption; VT, tidal volume.
