About this study

Official title: Relationship Between Methods of Aerobic Prescription: Heart Rate vs. VO2 Load vs. Self Selected

Current literature report 3 ways to prescribe and control aerobic training. Such models require comparison to determine if they really provide the same impact training in a prescription. The aim of this study is to compare the results of different methods of prescription of aerobic training, ie VO2 workload, heart rate (HR), and load self adjusted by perceived effort (PSE) as well as psychological responses activation, and feel depending on the stimuli offered.

Read the detailed description

36 subjects will undergo two sessions. On the first visit, a maximum aerobic exercise test will be carried on treadmill to determine the maximum oxygen intake and maximum heart rate. Second, the subjects are placed (in a blinded fashion) in 3 situations of moderate effort (60 to 65%) for a total of 5 min and 3 min interval between conditions. In situation 1) will be used to speed regarding the particular metabolic demand from the maximum oxygen intake; In the second situation the reserve of heart rate will be used as reference for prescription aiming to achieve 60-65%; On the last visit will be shown to subjects a perceived effort characterized as moderate and asked to adjust their speed according to the application effort. The final will be recorded each time the FC and the speed and perception of effort that the subject was.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Prescription for WorkloadOther

    Also called VO2Max

    Prescription from 65% VO2max for 5 min of exercise

  • Prescription for Heart RateOther

    Also called Heart Rate

    Prescription from 60 - 65% Maximum Heart Rate for 5 min of exercise

  • Prescription Self SelectedOther

    Also called Self Selected

    Prescription Self Selected from Perceived exertion at 3 - 4 (moderate) for 5 min of exercise

What is being measured

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

  1. Response of Heart Rate and perceived Effort through prescriptions for oxygen uptake

    Measured: Acute Change in 5 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise

  2. Response of Heart Rate through prescriptions for self selected workload based in perceived effort

    Measured: Acute Change in 5 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise

  3. Response of velocity and Perceived Effort through Prescription of Heart Rate

    Measured: Acute Change in 5 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prescription for Workload, Prescription for Heart Rate and Prescription Self Selected in people with Healthy, run by Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro.

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 3 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 21 Jan 2016. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Sérgio Machado, PhD (55 21 991567006, secm80@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response of Heart Rate and perceived Effort through prescriptions for oxygen uptake (time frame: Acute Change in 5 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Jan 2016.
