Abstract
V originále
Aim Increased arterial stiffness is an important factor limiting physical performance and a signal of higher cardiovascular risk. The purpose of this clinical study was to examine the effects of exercise rehabilitation program on arterial stiffness (AS) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Patients and methods Patients with stable CAD [n = 116; M/W 88/28; mean age 62 (11) years; mean EF 48(12) %; mean BMI 28.6 (3.7)] underwent 12 weeks of supervised exercise training program. Arterial stiffness (measured using cardio-ankle vascular index) and selected functional parameters (VO2peak, Wpeak and HRpeak) were assessed before and after 12-weeks of training. Results Overall CAVI value significantly decreased between admission and 6th week and 12th week of RHB program respectively; the mean decrease of CAVI was -0.28 at 6th week and -0.29 at 12th week. Also the mean value of VO2peak (+8.1%) improved significantly. Conclusion The present study demonstrated that the majority of the AS and important functional parameters improved after the supervised aerobic exercise training program. However, these results need to be confirmed in future randomized clinical studies controlling potential confounders.
