Functional Inspiratory Muscle Training in Patients Diagnosed With Hypertension

The Effect of Functional Inspiratory Muscle Training on Exercise Capacity, Peripheral Muscle Strength in Patients With Hypertension

This study was planned to investigate the effectiveness of combined exercise training, that is, functional inspiratory muscle training, with breathing exercises to be applied with a portable, easy-to-use respiratory muscle strengthening device, on exercise capacity and peripheral muscle strength.

Forty-five Individuals will be randomly divided into three groups:

Functional IMT Group (n:15): will receive functional inspiratory muscle training (exercise + 50% of MIP) IMT Group I (n:15): will recieve inspiratory muscle training (50% of MIP ) Control group (n:15): will recieve breathing exercises training

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg,
2. It will include both male and female subjects aged ≥18 and <80 years with a previous diagnosis of essential hypertension.
3. Subjects receiving no pharmacological treatment or receiving only thiazide diuretics
4. Those with a body mass index <30 kg/m2 Those who engage in <150 minutes of moderate or intense physical activity per week, according to the 5th International Physical Activity Survey

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Blood pressure ≥160 / 100 mmHg
2. Severe dyspnea; diabetes; orthopedic, musculoskeletal, or fitness limitations;
3. Major physiological crises;
4. A current or past history of deep venous thrombosis; History of myocardial infarction or stroke within the 5th year or 6 months ago;

6. Congestive heart therapy; 7. Unstable angina; 8. or lung disease of any etiology (including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease); 9. Active smokers 10. Patients under 18 years of age 11. Pregnant women 12. Those with Active Infection 13. Those with Known Malignancy
