About this study

Official title: Noninvasive Ventilatory Support Associated With Concurrent Training in Improved Functional Capacity and Quality of Life in Patients With Heart Failure

Due to the symptoms of heart failure (HF), as dyspnea and fatigue, patients have a reduced functional capacity, evidenced during usual daily activities and exercises. The Cardiac Rehabilitation with emphasis on resistance and aerobic exercises performed in the same session (concurrent training), can be added to pharmacological treatment as improvement strategy in functional capacity and quality of life.

Read the detailed description

A randomized clinical trial, divided into two stages will be held. In step 1 the function will be assessed by the 6-minute walk test, spirometry, and questionnaires to evaluate quality of life. After fulfilled the series of assessments individuals will be randomly divided into two groups, with group 1 (control) will hold only one interval aerobic exercise program on treadmill and group 2 (intervention) will hold a combined exercise program for prior use of ventilatory support noninvasive. For both groups will be held an aerobic exercise program associated with resistance exercise for 12 weeks. The first two weeks will be considered in period. In the 10 weeks following both groups maintain the preset exercise program gradually. In the intervention group will be added before the exercise program the use of noninvasive ventilation for 30 minutes.

What is being measured

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

  1. SIX MINUTES WALK TEST

    Identifying whether a combined resistance and aerobic exercise program (concurrent training) associated with the use of non-invasive ventilation is effective in improving the quality of life and functional capacity of patients with ventricular dysfunction.

    Measured: AFTER 12 WEEKS FOLLOW

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. double product

    Measured: AFTER 12 WEEKS FOLLOW

  2. spirometry

    Identifying whether a combined resistance and aerobic exercise program (concurrent training) associated with the use of non-invasive ventilation is effective in improving the quality of life and functional capacity of patients with ventricular dysfunction.

    Measured: AFTER 12 WEEKS FOLLOW

  3. minnesota questionnaire

    Identifying whether a combined resistance and aerobic exercise program (concurrent training) associated with the use of non-invasive ventilation is effective in improving the quality of life and functional capacity of patients with ventricular dysfunction.

    Measured: AFTER 12 WEEKS FOLLOW

  4. SF-36 questionnaire

    Identifying whether a combined resistance and aerobic exercise program (concurrent training) associated with the use of non-invasive ventilation is effective in improving the quality of life and functional capacity of patients with ventricular dysfunction.

    Measured: AFTER 12 WEEKS FOLLOW

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing noninvasive ventilatory support and interval training in people with Heart Failure, run by Federal University of Bahia.

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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

SIX MINUTES WALK TEST (time frame: AFTER 12 WEEKS FOLLOW). 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 NCT02384798, which also lists 2 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 10 Mar 2015.
