Brief summary

To find the effect of cardiac rehabilitation program with and without progressive resisted exercises on patients after acute stage of PCI with at least 8 weeks history. It is a randomized clinical trial using convenient sampling technique. Randomly assign participants into two groups: An intervention group receiving Delorme progressive resisted exercise along with cardiac rehab and a control group undergoing standard cardiac rehabilitation alone. In Group A, Delorme technique will involve a 10-repetition max of aerobic and resistance exercises along with cardiac rehab. Seven different exercises will be performed in 3 sets of 10-repetition max. The control group will not be performing any type of training but will undergo cardiac rehab alone. Data will be analyzed using t test and SPSS 21 will be used for data collection. Age group will be from ≥70 years with patient undergoing dyspnea along with recent history of primary diseases. Data will be collected from Bethania Hospital, Sialkot through tools like the 6-minute walk test, Rose Angina questionnaire or settle angina questionnaire, quality of life scale (QOLFS), and Modified Borg dyspnea scale.

Interventions

OTHERStandard Cardiac rehabilitation with Delorme technique

Aerobic training will be provided three alternate days a week at 60-70% of maximum heart rate for eight weeks. Resistance training for 3 sets and 10 repetitions (10 lifts with 50%of 10RM, then 75% of 10RM and will progress to 100% of 10RM) will involve seven exercises (abdominal curl ups, bicep curls, triceps extension, back extension, leg curls, side leg raises and knee extensions).

The control group (Group B) will undergo standard cardiac rehabilitation (outpatient cardiac rehabilitation) which include walking, cycling and strength training which will have 5-10 minutes warm-up followed by training for 30-45 minutes, concluding with cool-down without the Delorme technique. The control group will not perform any specific training but will be given a diet chart to follow

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
QUALITY OF LIFE SCALE:baseline and fourth weekThe QOLS was originally a 15-item instrument that measured five conceptual domains of quality of life: material and physical well-being, relationships with other people, social, community and civic activities, personal development and fulfillment, and recreation
MODIFIED BORG DYSPNEA SCALEbaseline and fourth weekThe Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale (MBS) is a numerical rating system (0-10) assessing dyspnea during submaximal exercise. Administered with the six-minute walk test (6MWT), a common measure for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), the MBS is consistent within a single session
SETTLE ANGINA QUESTIONNAIREbaseline and fourth weekSettle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) scale is a disease specific scale is a diabetes specific scale for assessing QOL of CHD patients; have 5 items covering domains; Physical Limitation, Angina Stability, Angina Severity, Treatment Satisfaction and Disease Perception
