Previous issue date: 2014-03-05 / Objectives : To evaluate inspiratory muscle strength and endurance in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) in comparison with healthy subjects. Methods : This cross-sectional observational study evaluated CF patients (6 to 18 years old) and healthy subjects paired in a 1:2 proportion, for sex, age, height and weight. Spirometry, impulse oscillometry, plethysmography, manovacuometry and a protocol of inspiratory muscle endurance were performed. Data were analyzed using Student s t test and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results : Thirty four patients with CF were included in the study with a mean age of 12.6?2.9 years and twenty of them were boys (58.8%). The mean percentage of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP%) was 118.5?25.8 and the endurance (percentage of MIP) was 60.9?13.3. Sixty eight healthy subjects were included and they presented a mean MIP% of 105.8?18.0 and an endurance of 65.3?12.3 of. CF patients had higher MIP% than healthy subjects and no significant difference in the endurance was shown. When restricting the analysis to CF patients without colonization by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and with forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) greater than 80% of predicted values, MIP% values were significantly higher and inspiratory muscle endurance was lower, in comparison with the control group. MIP correlated more significantly with forced vital capacity (r=0.44, p=0.01) and FEV1 (r=0.41, p=0.01), while endurance correlated better with total airway resistance (r=0.35, p=0.04) and with central airway resistance (r=0.48, p=0.04). Conclusion : Children and adolescents with CF present changes in inspiratory muscle strength and endurance that are associated differently with levels of pulmonary impairment. Furthermore, the significant strength associations are better related to pulmonary function parameters, while endurance is to airway resistance. / M?todos : Estudo observacional, transversal, em pacientes com FC (6 a 18 anos) e indiv?duos saud?veis pareados na propor??o de 1:2 por sexo, idade, altura e peso. Foram realizados espirometria, oscilometria de impulso, pletismografia, manovacuometria e protocolo de endurance muscular inspirat?ria. Para an?lise de dados utilizou-se os testes t de student e a correla??o linear de Pearson. Resultados : Foram inclu?dos 34 pacientes com FC, m?dia de idade de 14,0?2,7, sendo 20 pacientes (58,8%) do sexo masculino, com m?dia de press?o inspirat?ria m?xima percentual (PIMAX%) de 118,5?25,8 e de endurance (percentual da PIMAX) de 60,9?13,3. Tamb?m foram inclu?dos 68 indiv?duos saud?veis com m?dia de PIMAX% de 105,8?18,0 e de endurance de 65,3?12,3. Os pacientes com FC apresentaram maior PIMAX% do que os saud?veis e n?o apresentaram diferen?a significativa na endurance. Ao analisar separadamente os pacientes com FC sem coloniza??o por Pseudomonas aeruginosa e com volume expirat?rio for?ado no primeiro segundo (VEF1) maior do que 80% do previsto a PIMAX% foi significativamente maior nos pacientes com FC e a endurance muscular inspirat?ria foi menor em compara??o com os saud?veis. A PIMAX se correlacionou com capacidade vital for?ada (r=0,44; p=0,01) e com VEF1 (r=0,41; p=0,01) e a endurance se correlacionou com resist?ncia total das vias a?reas (r=0,35; p=0,04) e com a resist?ncia central das vias a?reas (r=0,48; p=0,04). Conclus?o : Crian?as e adolescentes com FC apresentam altera??es da for?a e da endurance muscular inspirat?ria que s?o distintas em diferentes n?veis de comprometimento pulmonar. Al?m disso, a for?a parece estar mais relacionada com par?metros da fun??o pulmonar e a endurance com a resist?ncia das vias a?reas.
