About this study

Official title: Comparision the Effect of Interval Aerobic Training and Continious Training on Coronary Artery Disease

This research is comparing the effects of interval and continuous training which are the two types of aerobic training on persons' life quality and exercise capacity on coronary artery disease patients.

Read the detailed description

The participants are diagnosed coronary artery disease aged between 40- 80 and have no mental and physical disability to take part in research. The participants' demographic infos and clinical story were recorded. To evaluate exercise capacity we used the symptom-limited exercise test (ETT) and six minute walking test (6DYT). We evaluate the life quality by using Short Form-36 (SF-36).

All those evaluation tests are done before and after training. Participants are randomly divided into two groups, the first group took part in interval aerobic training (AAE) while the other group was joining in continuous training (SAE) three times a week during 6 weeks. In both groups, significant changes were found in ETT, test time and 6 DYT scores after the rehabilitation program (p<0,05). But only AAE group have important statistical values comparing to SAE group on test time and 6DYT scores. After training SAE group showed significant statistical change in every SF-36 parameter, while AAE group showing significant values except energy/fatigue. AAE group have statistically significant changes comparing to SAE group on that parameters; physical function, role limitations due to physical function, role limitations due to emotional function and general health (p<0,05). Consequently AAE is much more tolerable comparing to SAE and AAE is considered more effective in increasing some parameters. On the other hand, we observed that both training types can be used in cardiac rehabilitation safely.

What participants receive

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

  • Physiotherapy and rehabilitationOther

    The aerobic exercise is very crucial part of cardiac rehabilitation. This study compares the effects of interval and continuous training which are the two types of aerobic training on persons' life quality and exercise capacity diagnosed coronary artery disease patients.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Treatmenthumans that diagnosed as coronary artery disease, joined two aerobic exercise groups. One of this group includes interval exercise and the other one includes continuous exercise.

What is being measured

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

  1. the effect of intermittent and continuous aerobic exercise on exercise capacity

    we used the symptom-limited exercise test and six minute walking test (6DYT). All evaluation tests are done before and after training. Participants were into randomised two groups: interval aerobic training (AAE) and continuous aerobic training (SAE). Training lasted three times a week during 6 weeks. In both groups, significant changes were found in evaluation tests scores after the rehabilitation program (p<0,05). But only AAE group have important statistical difference comparing to SAE group on test time and 6DYT scores.

    Measured: 30 minutes 3 times a week during 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Exercise Addiction, run by Istanbul Medipol University Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. 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 29 Jul 2024. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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. 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?

the effect of intermittent and continuous aerobic exercise on exercise capacity (time frame: 30 minutes 3 times a week during 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06525233, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 29 Jul 2024.
