Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: The main inclusion criteria to participate in the present study are participants between 40 and 65 years old; who underwent myocardial revascularization through angioplasty with occlusion = 50%; must have preserved ejection function with an ejection fraction = 40%; no signs of moderate or severe myocardial ischemia detected by perfusion scintigraphy; do not present with angina; do not present ischemia caused by physical exercise; not participate in any type of systematic physical activity; and be classified among those irregularly active
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Those patients who present the following symptoms during the study will be excluded from the study. unstable angina; decompensated systemic arterial hypertension with SBP=180 mmHg or DBP=110 mmHg; drop in orthostatic pressure of 20 mm Hg with symptoms, significant aortic stenosis with aortic valve area of 1.0 cm2; uncontrolled ventricular or atrial arrhythmia; sinus tachycardia =120 bpm; third-degree atrioventricular block without a pacemaker; active pericarditis or myocarditis; recent embolism; acute thrombophlebitis; uncontrolled diabetes mellitus; have orthopedic limitations or any physical or mental limitation that prevents the performance of physical exercises; not attending at least 85% of physical training sessions or missing an entire week
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: an effect size of at least 9% was expected between High Intensity Interval Training when compared with Moderate Aerobic Training, on the Cardiac Power Index in patients undergoing Primary Angioplasty, through 12 weeks of training;Outcome found 1: High Intensity Interval Training increased the Cardiac Power Index by 14% when compared to Moderate Training, over a 12-week period of intervention | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 2: a greater effect of High Intensity Interval Training, when compared to Continuous Aerobic Training, was expected on the left ventricular ejection fraction in patients undergoing Primary Angioplasty;Outcome found 2: High Intensity Interval Training demonstrated an effect of at least 12% greater on left ventricular ejection fraction, when compared to Continuous Moderate Training | — |
