Impact of acute and chronic regular exercise on arterial stiffness and reflection measures in coronary artery disease patients: A Protocol for Randomized Clinical Trial

Vascular stiffness due to arteriosclerosis reduces arterial elasticity which is as an independent and non-invasive predictor of future incidence of coronary heart disease and stroke. There is limited evidence of the benefits of regular exercise on arterial stiffness in populations suffering from car...

Description
Summary:Vascular stiffness due to arteriosclerosis reduces arterial elasticity which is as an independent and non-invasive predictor of future incidence of coronary heart disease and stroke. There is limited evidence of the benefits of regular exercise on arterial stiffness in populations suffering from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) especially coronary artery disease (CAD).Aim. To determine the acute and chronic effects of aerobic, resistance and combined exercise on arterial and hemodynamic function in patients with CAD.Material and methods. This study will be a prospective, single-blind, randomized study examining the effects of exercise on arterial stiffness. The study will be conducted at a tertiary care hospital for a continuous period of one year. Patients with CAD (n=105) will be selected using systematic sampling techniques and allocated randomly to one of the four treatment groups using computer-generated, random number sequence for age, sex and health status of CAD (Group-I: aerobic exercise, Group-II: resistance exercise, Group-III: combined aerobic and resistance exercise, and Group-IV: control) as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All recruited subjects will be informed about the assessment and intervention procedure before getting the consent form filled. This project followed the guidelines of standard protocol for randomized clinical trials (spirit).Perspective. It is expected that this study protocol shall through light and be helpful in better quality of life along with decline in drug dependency for the people suffering from CAD. Further this study will be valuable is designing exercise protocol for the people suffering from CAD.
