I got some kind of breathing device in the hospital for something or other. No manual and no measurement of anything.
Your research is worthless without creating and distributing the protocol for this.
Your mentors and senior researchers should be fired for not having you do those two simple tasks.

Abstract: Study investigated the efficacy of bedside respiratory muscle training on pulmonary function and stroke-related disabilities in stroke rehabilitation. Forty patients with stroke in a rehabilitation unit were randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. Both groups participated in a conventional stroke rehabilitation program. During the study period, the intervention group received bedside respiratory muscle training twice a day for 3 weeks. The respiratory muscle training consisted of: (1) a breath stacking exercise, (2) inspiratory muscle training, and (3) expiratory muscle training. The primary outcomes were measures of pulmonary function: forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in 1 second, and peak flow. Secondary outcomes were stroke-related disabilities assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, Modified Barthel Index, Berg Balance Scale, Fugl-Meyer Assessment, the Korean Mini-Mental State Examination, and pneumonia incidence. Pulmonary function was significantly improved in the intervention group after 3 weeks of respiratory muscle training. This improvement in pulmonary function was independent of the improvement in stroke-related disabilities.
