Why the study?

Does 12 weeks of supervised aerobic and strength training improve peak aerobic power, skeletal muscle function, and cardiovascular function in clinically stable heart transplant recipients?

43 clinically stable heart transplant recipients. SET group: n=22, age 57 +/- 10 years, time posttransplant…

Comparison

12 weeks of supervised aerobic and strength… vs No-training (NT) for 12 weeks

Design

RCT, Randomly assigned

Follow-up

12 weeks

Overview

Supports supervised aerobic and strength training in stable heart transplant recipients; extends RCT evidence for functional gains without LV or endothelial changes.

Structured PICO

Does 12 weeks of supervised aerobic and strength training improve peak aerobic power, skeletal muscle function, and cardiovascular function in clinically stable heart transplant recipients?

Population

43 clinically stable heart transplant recipients (HTR). SET group: n=22, age 57 +/- 10 years, time posttransplant 5.4 +/- 4.9 years. NT group: n=21, age 59 +/- 11 years, time posttransplant 4.4 +/- 3.3 years.

Intervention

12 weeks of supervised aerobic and strength training (SET)

Comparator

No-training (NT) for 12 weeks

Outcome

Peak aerobic power (VO2peak), submaximal exercise left ventricular (LV) systolic function, peripheral vascular function, lean tissue mass and maximal strengthsurrogate

A 12-week supervised aerobic and strength training program significantly improves aerobic capacity, lean tissue mass, and muscle strength in clinically stable heart transplant recipients, without altering LV systolic or endothelial function.
