Summary

The aim of this study To show the effect of breather on ventilatory and vascular function in COPD patient with intermittent claudication.

Detailed description

recent researches show that COPD patients have risk of developing peripheral arterial disease (PAD) which represented on patient by intermittent claudication inspiratory muscle trainer as the breather device show increasing in inspiratory muscle strength and endurance; reduction of dyspnea; and improving of exercise tolerance . Because of all this things this study tends to show the effect of the breather on ventilatory and vascular function in COPD patient with intermittent claudication.

Conditions

• COPD
• PAD

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	The BREATHER	The BREATHER is Light/Medium resistance inspiratory muscle trainer which has significance role in increasing inspiratory muscle strength and endurance which could result in a decreased sensation of dyspnea
DRUG	pharmacological treatment	patient will receive the usually pharmacological treatment.
