The main objective of the present study is to verify whether respiratory muscle training programme (IMT+EMT; included both inspriratory and expiratory muscles), applied by telerehabilitation, is an effective intervention (versus placebo and versus inspiratory muscle training in isolation (IMT)) in improving quality of life, cardiopulmonary function and physical and psychological state in people with ischemic heart disease. In addition, the aim is to determine whether respiratory muscle training (IMT or IMT+EMT) is effective in enhancing the results obtained by a conventional cardiac rehabilitation programme on the aforementioned variables.
