Effect of different effect types of training on exercise capacity in adults with cystic fibrosis
Summary:
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that primarily affects the respiratory and gastrointestinal system. The respiratory rehabilitation program has multiple benefits for patients with cystic fibrosis in terms of exercise capacity, with respiratory and muscle adjustments, with quality of life and daily physical activity. To date, little work has explored the effect of interval training on exercise capacity in patients with cystic fibrosis and none comparing different types of training (high intensity interval training and sub-maximal steady load training). This work was conducted to investigate whether high-intensity interval training equally improves exercise capacity compared to sub-maximal steady load training in adults with cystic fibrosis. A total of 24 cystic fibrosis adults were divided into 2 groups: group A (interval training, n = 12) and group B (continuous training, n = 12). In the interval training the exercise period was 100% of the maximum exercise capacity for 30 '' and was followed by an active rest period of 40% of the maximum exercise capacity for 30'', in total for 30 minutes, 3 times per week. Continuous training corresponded to a 70% intensity of the maximum exercise capacity in total for 30 minutes, 3 times / week. In addition, both groups performed 60-70% of 1 repetition maximum, 3-5 rows of 10-12 repeats for upper and lower limbs, 3 times / week. The duration of the respiratory rehabilitation program lasted 12 weeks for both training groups. All patients underwent cardio-pulmonary exercise test, full respiratory functional test, muscle strength assessment, six-minute walking test, body composition assessment, daily physical activity assessment, and questionnaire quality of life assessment. The two training groups also significantly improved the peak work rate in the cyclometer (pre: 89 ± 18 watts, post: 108 ± 19 watts) for the interval training group and (pre: 93 ± 15 watts, post: 109 ± 18 watts) team of continuous training. In addition, peak oxygen uptake (pre: 24.1 ± 3.8 ml / kg / min, post: 26.9 ± 3.9 ml / kg / min) was also significantly increased for the interval training group and (pre: 23.3 ± 2.6 ml / kg / min, post: 25.7 ± 2.9 ml / kg / min) for the continuous training group. With regard to the cardiovascular response, the two exercise groups have equally increased the peak cardiac output. Specifically, cardiac output increased (pre: 9.8 ± 0.8 liters, post: 10.4 ± 0.6 liters) for the interval training group and (pre: 11.2 ± 0.6 liters, post: 12.4 ± 1.1 liters) for the continuous training group. It was also observed that the group of interval training exercised with less dyspnoea and less desaturation of hemoglobin throughout the rehabilitation program. In conclusion, exercise capacity was equally improved for both exercise groups (interval-continuous). Finally, interval training is an alternative form of exercise that is effective with continuous training but more tolerable as it does not allow for a large increase in dyspnoea and more secure as it keeps saturating hemoglobin at higher levels compared to continuous training in adults with cystic fibrosis.
