Key result
Endurance exercise is linked to a ~19% increase in stroke volume during exercise in CHD patients.
Why the study?
High intensity endurance exercise training increases VO2max and stroke volume in ischaemic heart disease patients, but mechanisms responsible for enhanced stroke volume after training are unclear.
Does 12 months of endurance exercise improve stroke volume and left ventricular function in patients with ischaemic heart disease?
Does 12 months of endurance exercise improve stroke volume and left ventricular function in patients with ischaemic heart disease?
Absolute Event Rate: 93% vs 78%
p-value: p=<0.025
High-intensity endurance exercise training for 12 months in patients with ischemic heart disease enhances stroke volume during exercise, partly due to improved left ventricular function.

May support endurance training for exercise hemodynamics in coronary disease; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation.
Ali A. Ehsani (1987) studied ischaemic heart disease (n=18). Endurance exercise training vs. Before training (baseline) was evaluated on Stroke volume during exercise (p=<0.025). 12 months of endurance exercise training increased stroke volume during exercise from 78 ml to 93 ml (P<0.025) in patients with coronary heart disease.
