Aerobic Exercise and Oxygen Uptake Efficiency Slope in Coronary Artery Disease

Thus, the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of continuos exercise training (CET) and interval exercise trainining (IET) on oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) in patients with coronary artery disease.

About this study

The oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) is a submaximal index that incorporates cardiovascular, peripheral and pulmonary factors that determine ventilatory response to exercise. There is scarce information about the effects of the mode and intensity of exercise training on OUES in patients with coronary artery disease.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

stable coronary artery disease diagnosed by coronary angiography

Exclusion criteria

unstable angina pectoris,
complex ventricular arrhythmias,
pulmonary congestion and
orthopaedic or neurological limitations to exercise

Treatment and study plan

Aerobic exercise training

Other

The continuous exercise training was performed on a treadmill with a 50-minutes duration and intensity at ventilatory anaerobic threshold.

The interval exercise training consisted of 7 sets of 3 minutes at respiratory compensation point and 7 sets of 3 minutes of exercise at moderate intensity corresponding to the ventilatory anaerobic threshold totaling 42 minutes

Other names: continuos training, interval training

Primary outcomes

Time frame: up to 3 months
