Abstract

V originále

Both aerobic training (AT) and electromyostimulation (EMS) of leg muscles improve exercise tolerance in patients suffering from chronic heart failure (CHF). It was speculated that combination of both methods might have an additive effect. This study was performed to evaluate the effects of a combination of AT and EMS in rehabilitation (RHB) of CHF patients. Patients and Methods: Patients (n=71; age 59+/-10.2 yrs, NYHA II/III, EF 32+/-7.1%) were randomized into 3 groups: a) group AT, b) group EMS, and c) group AT+EMS. AT protocol included standard activity on bicycle 3x a week at the level of individual anaerobic threshold. EMS (10Hz, mode 20s "on"/20s "off") was applied to leg extensors for 2 h/day. Total time of given type of RHB was 12 weeks. Conclusion: No significant difference was found between the two types of exercise training.and nor did, their combination have any significant additional improvement.
