Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint is VO2max (maximum oxygen uptake) and is measured using spiroergometry. Spiroergometry is a diagnostic procedure in which the reaction of the heart, circulation, breathing and metabolism as well as performance is examined by measuring respiratory gases during physical exertion. This parameter is collected at the baseline visit at the beginning and at the follow-up visit after the 12-week intervention. | — |
