Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Respiratory Muscle Mechanics and Haemodynamics in Healthy Adults
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Inspiratory Muscle Training and Sham Inspiratory Muscle Training for Respiratory Muscles and Breathing Exercises. Completed, enrolled 25 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) remain controversial. Many studies have examined the effect IMT has on exercise performance, but any changes to the body that come from IMT have yet to be looked at. This study will look at how someone breathes can change after IMT. Understanding how IMT changes the body can help us use IMT in different treatments.
