Trial summary

The investigators seek to understand how reflexes from the breathing muscles influence blood pressure during exercise. Furthermore, the investigators are determining if increasing breathing muscle strength (via inspiratory muscle training) influences the respiratory muscle contribution to blood pressure during… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Respiratory Muscle Contribution to Blood Pressure During Exercise in Healthy Humans

The investigators seek to understand how reflexes from the breathing muscles influence blood pressure during exercise. Furthermore, the investigators are determining if increasing breathing muscle strength (via inspiratory muscle training) influences the respiratory muscle contribution to blood pressure during exercise.

Being tested
Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT), No Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT)Other

    Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) are breathing exercises used to increase strength and endurance of the respiratory muscles.

  • No Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT)Other

    No inspiratory muscle training.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. VO2 max test

    Using a MedGraphics metabolic cart, the investigators will measure the maximum amount of oxygen that an individual can utilize during exercise. During this test the subject will be asked to exercise to his/her max capacity on a recumbent bicycle while breathing through a mouth piece that is hooked into the MedGraphics computer software.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of one year.

  2. Blood Pressure

    Blood pressure will be taken every few minutes during exercise testing using a standard blood pressure cuff to monitor changes in blood pressure.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of one year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) and No Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) in people with Respiratory Muscle and Blood Pressure, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

VO2 max test (time frame: Through study completion, an average of one year.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jul 2021.
