Registration Number
NCT06174870
Lead Sponsor
University of Phayao
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate in elderly with hypertension . The main question it aim to answer is:

• Investigate the effect of inspiratory muscle training on inspiratory muscle strength, blood pressure and physical capacity

Participants will be random in to 2 group and measure baseline. Control group will advise to maintain normal daily life activity. and Intervention group will receive inspiratory muscle training (IMT) with 60% of Maximal inspiratory pressure. Intervention group will perform IMT 30 breaths/day, 5 days a week for 6 weeks.

after 6 weeks both group will remeasure variable again as post test
