Interventions
cardiopulmonary rehabilitation in the form of moderate-intensity interval aerobic training
Training will be conducted on a treadmill three times weekly for 12 weeks. Exercise intensity will progress from 30-40% to 60-70% of target heart rate. Each session will last 30 minutes and include warm-up and cool-down periods.
Inspiratory Muscle Training
inspiratory muscle training will be performed using a Threshold Inspiratory Muscle Trainer (Philips Respironics). Training intensity will correspond to moderate-to-severe effort (3-5 on the Modified Borg Scale).
Medical treatment
medication
