After SL-ET, O2Def, MRT, and SCamp decreased by 16.4% (p=0.008), 15.6% (p=0.004), and 35% (p=0.002), respectively, with no significant difference in the magnitude of improvement compared to DL-ET.

Why the study?

The study investigated the effects of single-leg versus double-leg high-intensity interval training on pulmonary VO2 kinetics during moderate- and heavy-intensity exercise in solid organ transplant recipients.

Does single-leg high-intensity interval training improve pulmonary V˙O2 kinetics as effectively as double-leg training in solid organ transplant recipients?

Population

33 solid organ transplant recipients (13 heart, 11 kidney, and 9 liver)

Comparison

Single-leg endurance training vs double-leg endurance training

Follow-up

24 sessions

Overview

SL-ET matches DL-ET for improving VO2 kinetics in transplant recipients; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.

Structured PICO

Does single-leg high-intensity interval training improve pulmonary V˙O2 kinetics as effectively as double-leg training in solid organ transplant recipients?

P
Population
33 solid organ transplant recipients (13 heart transplant, 11 kidney transplant, 9 liver transplant)
I
Intervention
Single-leg high-intensity interval training (SL-ET) for 24 sessions
C
Comparator
Double-leg high-intensity interval training (DL-ET) for 24 sessions
O
Outcome
O2 deficit (O2Def) and mean response time (MRT) during square-wave moderate-intensity exercise, and amplitude of V˙O2p slow component (SCamp) during heavy intensity exercisesurrogate

Single-leg high-intensity interval training is as effective as double-leg training for improving pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics in solid organ transplant recipients.
