Abstrakt     Background. This thesis represents the pulmonary rehabilitation of the patients with severe form of COPD with special attention to inspiratory breathing muscle exercise using the RESPIFLO FS device. First part of the thesis focuses on essential data of C:OPD and theoretical aproach to the rehabilitaion. Second part includes the research of inspiratory breathing muscle training with patients suffering from severe form of COPD (stages 3 and 4). Aim. There are many positive responces when patients with severe form of COPD are physicallly active. Problem appears with elderly patients who are less mobile and more dependant in daily activities. They often show no concern for their health. Methods. When the patients came into KOPA Golnik, we showed them the device called RESPIFLO FS, then they were instructed in the proper use of exercise with the device. Patients were dissmissed to their homes. A research required, that the patient would be exercising at least twice a day up to 15 minutes, minimally four times per week. At the beginning of the research and after a month of regullar exercising, we measured the following parametres: determening the severetiy of dispnoic attacks from Borg's scale, filling the form of MRC (Medical Research Council Dyspnoea Scale) and a St.George Hospital Questionary, the level of maximal mouth pressures (MIP, MEP) and the walking distance in 6-minutes walking test (6-MWT). Results. We discovered a statistically significant improvement for the experimental group in the following parametres: higher quallity of life (from questioneer for 5,6 points), downfall of severety and quantity of attacks of dispnoe (3,3 points with Borg and 1,1 point with MRC), higher maximal mouth pressures (MIP for 11,9 cmH2O, MEP for 15,5 cmH20) and longer walking distance in 6-minutes walking test (6-MWT was improved for 91.9 m). Conclusions. Even patients with severlly progressive form of COPD are suitable for pulmonary rehabilitation.
