Smartphone App-guided Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training for Lowering Systolic Blood Pressure
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating App-Based Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training and Clinic-Based Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training for Blood Pressure and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 33 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy of inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) guided by a smartphone app vs. IMST delivered in a clinical research setting for lowering systolic blood pressure in adults 18 years and older with elevated blood pressure. Participants will perform IMST for 5 minutes a day, 6 days a week, for 6 weeks.
