Research Abstract	Effects of respiratory muscle training and motor functional training on the strength of cough in adult day-care use senior. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of respiratory muscle training (RMT) and motor functional training (MFT) on the strength of cough in adult day-care use senior. Conclusions: Three months respiratory muscle training for adult daycare use senior could improve strength of cough and score of screening test of functional Dysphagia. There were no positive interactional effects between respiratory muscle training and motor functional training on training of cough force in adult daycare use senior.
