About this study

Official title: Long-term Follow up of Exercise Based Cardiac Rehabilitation in Oslo

Outcomes evaluation is a critical component in outpatient cardiac rehabilitation. The aim of this study is to examine factors who predict long-term effects of improved peak oxygen uptake one year after participating in cardiac rehabilitation.

Secondary to evaluate the short and long-term outcome of a 12-week outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program.

Read the detailed description

A prospective cohort study including all cardiac patients referred for outpatient cardiac rehabilitation in a primary care clinic in Oslo. The main efficacy variable is the changes in exercise capacity (VO2peak) as a primary prognostic measure of successful rehabilitation. HRQoL are measured by self-report using the COOP/WONCA questionnaire and SF-36.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in peak oxygen uptake

    Change from baseline in peak oxygen uptake at 15 months

    Measured: baseline, 15 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Health related quality of life

    Changes from baseline in quality of life (COOP/WONCA and SF-36) at 12 weeks

    Measured: baseline, 12 weeks

  2. Peak oxygen uptake

    Change from baseline in peak oxygen uptake at 12 weeks

    Measured: baseline, 12 weeks

  3. Time to exhaustion

    Change from baseline in "time to exhaustion" at 15 months

    Measured: baseline, 15 months

  4. Time to exhaustion

    Change from baseline in time to exhaustion at 12 weeks

    Measured: baseline, 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High intensity interval training in people with Cardiac Disease, run by Oslo University Hospital at 1 site in Norway.

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 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Norway. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Birgitta B Nilsson, PhD (+4793210913, b.b.nilsson@medisin.uio.no), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in peak oxygen uptake (time frame: baseline, 15 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 25 Sep 2014.
