Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from baseline in Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP)

    MIP will be measure by Mouth pressure meter (Micro RPM, Micro Medical, Inc., Chatham Maritime, Kent)

    Baseline and at 8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Lung capacity

    Baseline and at 8 weeks

  • Exercise capacity

    Baseline and at 8 weeks

  • Chest wall expansion and abdominal expansion

    Baseline and at 8 weeks

  • Blood pressure (BP)

    Baseline and at 8 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT)

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects in the inspiratory muscle training (IMT) group will perform loaded deep breathing exercise at 6 breaths/min using BreatheMaxยฎ device. The IMT protocol at 6 breathing rate (inspiratory time = 4 seconds and expiratory time = 6 seconds) with load at 25 percent of MIP for eighth weeks. The pressure will be control by pressure manometer and duty cycle are control by subjects count duration for inspiration and expiration during training. The program will perform at home for 10 breaths/min/set, 6 sets/day with at least 1 minutes rest between sessions, 7 days/week for 8 weeks

Other: Inspiratory Muscle Training

Control

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Subjects in the control (CON) group will perform breathing exercise with inspiratory load at 2 cmH2O at 6 breathing rate using one BreatheMAXยฎ device. The pressure will be control by pressure manometer and duty cycle are control by subjects count duration for inspiration and expiration during training. The program will perform at home for 10 breaths/min/set, 6 sets/day with at least 1 minutes rest between sessions, 7 days/week for 8 weeks

Other: Control
