Respiratory Muscle Training and Intermittent Hypoxia: Additive Health Effects?

Pre-Hypertension Clinical Trial

Official title:
Acute Effects of Intermittent Respiratory Muscle Training and Hypoxia on Cardiovascular and Sleep Parameters in Elderly Persons With Prehypertension

Clinical Trial Summary

The prevalence of pre-hypertension and hypertension in the elderly is very high. Apart from medication, physical exercise training is a potential strategy to reduce blood pressure, however, the ability to perform exercise can be limited in the elderly. Hence, alternative non-pharmacological strategies to reduce blood pressure are necessary. Two interventions that have been shown to positively influence blood pressure are respiratory muscle training (RMT) and intermittent hypoxia (IH). Whether a combination of RMT and IH yields even better effects is currently unknown. Therefore, in this study, the effect of a single session of RMT with and without IH on blood pressure and associated cardiovascular parameters will be investigated in elderly subjects with pre-hypertension.
