Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) in ALS
Participants will be stratified into 2 groups based on baseline inspiratory muscle strength as determined by maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP): six participants with minimal to no respiratory weakness (i.e., MIP 70% predicted) and six participants with mild to moderate inspiratory weakness (i.e., MIP 40-70% predicted).

Prediction of Outcome by Echocardiography in Left Bundle Branch Block
Patients with left bundle branch block have an increased risk for the development of heart-failure and death. However, risk factors for unfavorable outcomes are still poorly defined. This study aims to identify echocardiographic parameters and ECG characteristics by machine learning in order to develop individual risk assessment

One-Year Quality of Life and Functional Prognosis of COVID-19 Patients in Post-ICU Setting
Therapeutic strategies implemented for the management of critically-ill patients may often lead to short-term muscular and functional alterations resulting in ICU-Acquired Weakness (ICUAW). These lead to long-term disabilities expressing trough dependence and quality of life impairment of survivors. The purpose of this study is to assess the quality of life, …
