Community Exercise Treating Effect on Cardiopulmonary Disease Patients

Clinical Study Protocol on the Impact of Community-Based Exercise Training on the Exercise Capacity of Patients With Reduced Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Function

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if community-based exercise training can benefit patients aged 18 to 85 with diminished cardiovascular and pulmonary function. The main aim of this study is: • Establish a community or home-based fitness training program for patients with cardiopulmonary insufficiency to improve adherence, safety, and efficacy while alleviating the burden on both patients and society. Researchers will compare community-based exercise training to non-exercise training to see if community-based exercise training works to improve cardiovascular and pulmonary function. Participants will: * Engage in community or home exercise training for 40-60 minutes, five times weekly, during a duration of eight weeks. Exercise modalities are primarily determined by the patients' individual preferences and habits, such as brisk walking, running, swimming, cycling, and hiking. * Adjust the exercise intensity according to their cardiopulmonary exercise test and the person's perceived exertion level. * Utilize fitness bracelets or watches to document statistics during workouts and submit them to the experimenter weekly, covering the five days of exercise within that week. * refrain from making any dietary modifications throughout the trial.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is examining whether structured community-based exercise improves heart and lung health in people with cardiovascular or pulmonary (breathing) conditions. Participants will take part in a supervised exercise program. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 85 years old - You have been diagnosed with abnormal heart or lung function - You are physically active but have never done formal structured exercise more than twice a week - You have not done systematic moderate-to-high intensity training in the past year **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have neuromuscular or skeletal disorders, or systemic diseases like diabetes, cancer, or heart disease - You take medications that affect health interpretation or exercise response - You have done organized endurance or strength training in the past year - You decline to participate - You have other conditions that make exercise training unsafe Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALcommunity-based exercise training

The patients will engage in 40-60 minutes of exercise training, either at home or in the community, five times a week, for eight weeks. Brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling, and trekking were among the exercise modalities that were chosen mostly based on the patient's individual preferences and habits. To guarantee safe and efficient exercise, exercise intensity was modified based on each person's subjective effort level and the results of their individual cardiorespiratory exercise tests.
