Key result
Supervised exercise training improved peak oxygen consumption from baseline in chronic heart failure patients, while home-based training did not, though between-group differences were not significant.
Why the study?
Does supervised exercise training improve peak exercise duration and peak VO2 compared to home-based exercise training in patients with stable chronic heart failure?
Population
22 patients with stable chronic heart failure in Turkey.
Comparison
Supervised exercise training, 3 sessions per… vs Home-based exercise training, 3 sessions per…

Supports supervised exercise for within-group VO2 gains in chronic HF; leaves open superiority versus home-based training.

Does supervised exercise training improve peak exercise duration and peak VO2 compared to home-based exercise training in patients with stable chronic heart failure?
Absolute Event Rate: 23.3% vs 23.6%
p-value: p=>0.05
Supervised exercise training significantly improves peak VO2 compared to home-based training in chronic heart failure patients, though both modalities improve peak exercise duration.
Daşkapan et al. (2005) conducted an RCT in Chronic heart failure (n=29). Supervised exercise training vs. Home-based exercise training was evaluated on Peak oxygen consumption (ml/kg/min) at 12 weeks (p=>0.05). Supervised exercise training improved peak oxygen consumption from baseline in chronic heart failure patients, while home-based training did not, though between-group differences were not significant.
