About this study

The purpose of this study was to determine if ethnicity alters training responsiveness to a low dose of high intensity interval training in inactive women.

Read the detailed description

Prior to the session, women completed a 4-minute warmup at 10 % PPO. Each subject completed 9 sessions of HIIT over a 3-week period which consisted of eight to ten 1-minute bouts of cycling at 85% PPO with 75-second recovery between bouts at 10 % PPO. This protocol is well-tolerated in inactive individuals. Continuously during each session, heart rate was monitored using telemetry. On days 1, 3, 6, and 9 of training, the physical activity enjoyment scale (PACES) was completed. VO2max and cardiac output max were assessed prior to training, as well as post.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in baseline in VO2max at 3 weeks

    Each participant performed VO2max testing on an electronically-braked cycle ergometer using a ramp protocol. During exercise, subjects expired through a plastic mouthpiece and low resistance valve into tubing connected to a mixing chamber. Measures of ventilation and expired fractions of oxygen and carbon dioxide were obtained throughout exercise by a metabolic cart. Gas exchange data including VO2, VCO2, and ventilation were time-averaged every 15 seconds. The test was terminated when the subject's pedal cadence was below 50 rev/min.

    Measured: 3 weeks

  2. Change in baseline in cardiac output max at 3 weeks

    During the VO2max assessment, participants wore a thoracic impedance device to measure heart rate and stroke volume, calculating their cardiac output.

    Measured: 3 weeks

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jun 2020. 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 United States. 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?

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?

Change in baseline in VO2max at 3 weeks (time frame: 3 weeks). The study lists 2 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 26 Jun 2020.
