Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of combined high intensity interval training (HIIT) and inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on pulmonary function and exercise capacity in patients COPD. one hundred patients with COPD (GOLD II and III) with ages between 40 and 70 years participated in this study. The main question it aims to answer is whether combined high intensity interval training (HIIT) and inspiratory muscle training (IMT) have effect on pulmonary function and exercise capacity Pulmonary function tests, incremental cycle ergometer tests, 6 min walk tests and inspiratory muscle strength were performed and dyspnea and Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) were assessed before and after the intervention period.

Conditions

  • COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

HIIT and IMT

The HIIT protocol involved four intervals, each lasting 4 minutes, beginning at 70% of maximum power and building to a target intensity of at least 85% HRmax. The IMT sessions included 2-3 sets of 30 breaths (totaling 60-90 breaths per session), with a two-minute rest between sets, three days per week starting with 30% of PImax and reaching 60% of PImax.
