PH is a condition characterized by abnormally high blood pressure in the lungs (i.e., pulmonary arterial pressure), which impacts heart function and reduces exercise tolerance. This study will assess whether six weeks of a breathing exercise called IMST can improve heart and lung function as well as exercise capacity for individuals with PH. For this study, patients will be asked to perform IMST for the six weeks prior to their next scheduled clinical standard of care assessment of their PH. The goal of this study is to determine whether IMST reduces pulmonary arterial pressure and improves exercise tolerance in individuals with PH. This study will be minimally invasive, as it simply adds a safe, well-tolerated, non-invasive respiratory training to the participants' standard of care and leverages their existing PH assessment data to evaluate the impact of IMST on PH.
