Abstract
Background
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) leads to inspiratory muscle weakness, which may contribute to an altered cardiovascular response during the respiratory cycle. In this context, inspiratory muscle training (IMT) emerges as one of the available tools for the treatment and monitoring of patients with respiratory muscle dysfunction.
