High Intensity Interval Training in Chronic Heart Failure

February 28, 2023 updated by: Joa KyungLim, Inha University Hospital

The Effect of High-intensity Interval Training and Moderate Intensity Continuous Training on Cardiopulmonary Functions in Chronic Heart Failure

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training and moderate intensity continuous training on cardiopulmonary functions in chronic heart failure.

  • high intensity interval training
  • moderate intensity continous training
  • control

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Maximal or peak oxygen consumption (VO2max or VO2peak, same meaning) (kg/ml/min)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
at the end of training, from baseline to 12 weeks
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Anaerobic threshold (kg/ml/min)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
The anaerobic threshold is the highest exercise intensity that you can sustain for a prolonged period without lactate substantially building up in your blood.
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
6minute walk test (meter)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
maximal heart rate (bpm)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
systolic blood pressure (mmHg)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
diastolic blood pressure (mmHg)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
resting heart rate (bpm)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
diastolic blood presure (mmHg)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
depression scale by Patient Health Questionnaire
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ; range, 0-27; higher score = severe depression; cut-off score of 5 for minimal depression)
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
anxiety scale by Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD; range, 0-21; higher score = severe anxiety; cut-off score of 5 for mild anxiety)
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
fatigue scale by fatigue severity scale
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
fatigue severity scale (FSS; range, 9-63; higher score = severe fatigue; cut-off score of 4 for fatigue)
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
Quality of Life (QoL) questionnaire (MacNew)
Time Frame: compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
MacNew QoL questionnaire is a measurement tool for patients with cardiac disease that measures physical, emotional, and social functional levels to provide overall QoL.
compare baseline data with 12 weeks rehabilitation data
