About this study

Official title: Effects of Two Different Intensities of Aerobic Exercise on Basic Metabolic Panel Perceived Exertion and Exercise Adherence in Older Obese Adults

Participants were randomly assigned to two groups prior to their second visit:

the High intensity interval training group A (HIIT) and Low intensity interval training group B (LIIT).

The randomization processes were conducted in Excel utilizing a random-number generator. Prior to the second visit, each participants' target exercise heart rate ranges were determined.

Group A will receive a program of high intensity interval training program Group B will receive a program of Low intensity interval training program

What is being measured

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

  1. Perceived Exertion

    The Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale was used to assess perceived exertion during breathing. It was given after the first and final training sessions. The participants were asked to score their difficulty in breathing on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no trouble in breathing at all and 10 indicating maximum difficulty in breathing

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Exercise Adherence

    The Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS) is a self-reported 16-item questionnaire that rates adherence to prescribed workouts. The EARS are divided into three components. The suggested exercise questionnaire is discussed in Section (A), Section (B) discusses exercise adherence behavior, and Section (C) discusses the factors for exercise adherence/non-adherence. All items in sections B and C are rated on a 5-point Likert scale (0 = fully agree to 4 = entirely disagree). Section 'B' favourably phrased items (items 1, 4, and 6) and Section 'C' positively phrased items (items 4, 5, 6, and 7) are assessed in reverse order. Sections "B" and "C" have possible total scores ranging from 0 to 24 and 0 to 40, respectively. The potential total score for parts (B) and (C) is 64. A higher total score suggests more adherence to exercise.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  3. Glucose level

    blood test that examines Glucose level in (mmol/L)

    Measured: 4 weeks

  4. calcium level

    blood test that examines calcium level in (mg/dL)

    Measured: 4 weeks

  5. sodium level

    blood test that examines sodium level in (mmol/L)

    Measured: 4 weeks

  6. potassium level

    blood test that examines potassium level in (millimol/L)

    Measured: 4 weeks

  7. carbon dioxide level

    blood test that examines carbon dioxide level in parts per million (ppm)

    Measured: 4 weeks

  8. chloride level

    blood test that examines chloride level in mmol/L

    Measured: 4 weeks

  9. blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level

    blood test that examines blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level in (mg/dL)

    Measured: 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Electronic Bicycle Ergometer in people with Obese and Elderly, run by Rana Elbanna at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 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 18 May 2023. 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 Egypt. 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 Rana H Elbanna, PHD (01062070686 ext. 002, rana.hesham@pt.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Perceived Exertion (time frame: 4 weeks). The study lists 9 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 18 May 2023.
