Summary

Study the effects of inspiratory muscle training at Low load of 25 %Maximal inspiratory pressure with slow breathing rate at 6 breaths/min on inspiratory muscle strength, lung function, chest wall expansion, abdominal expansion, exercise capacity and blood pressure in elderly with Isolated systolic hypertension.

Detailed description
