Evaluation of the Effects of Training at Different Intensities in Coronary Artery Patients

Evaluation of the Effects of High-Intensity-Intermittent Training and Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training on Heart Rate Recovery, Functional Capacity, Fatigue and Quality of Life in Coronary Artery Patients

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries, accounting for approximately one-third of all deaths in individuals over 35 years of age. Despite research to date, the basis of the disease is still poorly understood, with chronic dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system being proposed as such a basis, as well as pathophysiological and pathogenic approaches. Hypertension has been implicated in the development of cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes and dyslipidaemia and is directly linked to mortality caused by coronary artery disease. Moderate Intensity Continuous Training (MICT) has been recognised as the gold standard for many years. However, for some time, different researchers have adopted the high-intensity interval training model (HIIT) as the most effective method in terms of objective adaptations of most cardiac rehabilitation programmes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and congestive heart failure. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) consists of cycles between warm-up and cool-down periods, high-intensity exercise intensity followed by an active recovery period. The duration and intensity of these cycles vary between studies and there is no consensus on which is the optimal cycle. In general, the high-intensity exercise phase is applied at 80-100% of VO2 max and the active recovery phase is used between 50-70% of VO2 max. In Moderate Intensity Continuous Training the submaximal exercise intensity determined in accordance with the patient's functional capacity between the warm-up and cool-down periods is applied for a fixed period. The Moderate Intensity Continuous Training is planned to consist of 20-30 minute sessions between 50-70% of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max).
