What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Circuit Training programOther
The 4 weeks Circuit Training program, it will be of 3 times per week. Each CT workout includes 6 stations per circuit Training. Before the training period, all participants underwent an exercise familiarization session to ensure proper execution of technique.
The 6 stations will be included as 40 lb. carry for 100 ft., 3-min stair climb, 45 s plank pose, 20 lb. carry with a fast walk for 100 ft., right and left single leg stands for as long as balance was maintained, and a 15 lb. carry up and down 30 stairs
Continuous aerobic exercise GroupOther
Continuous aerobic exercise Frequency 3 time per week Intensity 50% of Heart rate reserve Type continuous aerobic exercise Time 40 minutes
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Circuit Training program | Experimental | circuit training for 4 weeks Receives: Other: Circuit Training program |
| Continuous aerobic exercise Group | Active comparator | aerobic exercise for 4 weeks Receives: Other: Continuous aerobic exercise Group |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
6 min walk test: Distance (meters)
Changes from the baseline, 6 min walk test (6 MWT) was used to measure Functional capacity. It is a sub maximal exercise test which can aid in assessing functional capacity of patients with cardiopulmonary diseases, in this test we find out the maximum distance in meters which an individual covers in 6 min without any support.
Measured: 4th Week
Step test
The Step Test is designed to measure a person's aerobic fitness. Participants step up and down, on and off an aerobics- type step for THREE minutes to increase heart rate and to evaluate the heart's recovery rate during the minute immediately following the step test exercise. Changes from the baseline to 4th week.
for Age 56-65 heart rate recovery rate in beats per minute fit score: Excellent< 89, Above Average 90-100, Average 101-111, Below Average 112-122, Poor > 123
Measured: 4th Week
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1)
Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second FEV1 in Liters
Measured: 4th Week
Forced vital Capacity (FVC)
Changes From the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced vital Capacity in Liters
Measured: 4th week
Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF)
Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze peak expiratory flow PEF in Liter/second.
Measured: 4th week

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?
6 min walk test: Distance (meters) (time frame: 4th Week). The study lists 5 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 2 Feb 2022.
