“…Although our intervention was less frequent, the overall duration of the study was longer. In contrast, Aslan et al [8] were unable to demonstrate between-group differences in 6MWD following IMT. However, despite improvements in inspiratory muscle strength, the average PImax post-intervention remained below 80 cmH 2 O suggesting residual inspiratory muscle weakness.…”

“…However, the findings of IMT on exercise capacity in PAH patients are inconsistent [8][9][10]. Limited studies have investigated the impact of IMT on 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) in people with PAH [8][9][10]. To our knowledge, there are no data characterising the effect of isolated IMT on peak oxygen uptake (VO 2 ) in PAH patients.…”

“…This could be explained with training intensity (lower in our study) and baseline values (mean 29 cm H 2 0 in our study, 55.7-78.2 cm H 2 0 in other). 19,20 More than 70% of the participants presented with poor sleep quality at baseline assessment pointing out important health concern in PAH patients. 16,21 Contrary to expected, we did not fi nd clinically signifi cant symptoms of depression in the studied population and approximately half of patients had clinically signifi cant symptoms of anxiety that can also explain poor quality of sleep.…”

“…The patients that have been reported to benefit from respiratory muscle training are those with moderate 48 and even with severe pulmonary hypertension 61 ; due to the severity and cardiovascular compromise of the patients, the prescription must be carried out safely and effectively.…”
