About this study

Official title: The Effects of Medium-Term Exercise Program on Health-Related Physical Fitness and Biochemical Outcomes in High-Risk Employees

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of three different exercise programs (e.g. low-intensity, medium-intensity, high-intensity) administered for six months on health-related physical fitness, biochemical variables and general health outcomes in high-risk employees, with about 2000 volunteers will participate in the randomized and repeated-measure study.

Read the detailed description

Exercise programs (e.g. low-intensity, medium-intensity, high-intensity) consist of aerobic workout, strength training and flexibility exercise, with different program has different intensity, volume, frequency and duration of exercise.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Exercise 1, Exercise 2 and Exercise 3 in people with Sedentary Lifestyle, run by Center for Health Sciences, Serbia at 1 site in Serbia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Serbia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cardiorespiratory endurance (time frame: Baseline and 6 months after intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01958333, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Feb 2017.
