简要总结
The CardioFit Trial: The feasibility, safety and tolerability of an exercise training programme in patients with severe aortic stenosis prior to aortic valve replacement surgery: A feasibility trial To investigate if a Structured Responsive Exercise Training Programme (SRETP) delivered before aortic valve replacement (AVR) in patients with severe aortic stenosis is feasible, safe, and tolerable.
Fitter patients have better surgical outcomes. Exercising post AVR surgery has been well documented and supported through cardiac rehabilitation programmes. However, there is limited evidence investigating exercising patients preoperatively, in part related to safety considerations in patients with severe aortic stenosis. If undertaking a SRETP before AVR in patients with severe aortic stenosis is shown to be feasible and safe, it provides a prehabilitation opportunity to enhance physical fitness with the aim of improving surgical outcomes.
Therefore, this trial will investigate whether SRETP (Prehabilitation) delivered before AVR in patients with severe aortic stenosis is safe & feasible.
详细描述
Single-centre Feasibility trial 15 patients
- Age ≥ 18 years old
- Severe aortic stenosis with a multidisciplinary team (MDT) plan for elective, aortic valve replacement
- At least 14 days until planned to come in (TCI) date
- Diagnosis of critical aortic stenosis defined as a mean gradient of ≥60mmHg or Vmax ≥5 m/s
- Presyncope/syncope due to aortic stenosis
- Unstable angina/indication for urgent surgery
- Malignant arrhythmias
- Known pregnancy
- Patients declining surgery
- Patients weight exceeds 160kg
- Patients unable to give informed consent
Intervention: 1) An in-hospital Structured Responsive Exercise-Training Programme (SRETP). The intervention will be delivered before surgery.
Feasibility Outcomes:
- Adherence to the intervention of ≥75%
- Tolerability of the intervention (minutes completed during the interval training) of ≥75%
- Adverse Events to SRETP

研究组 & 干预措施
An in-hospital Structured Responsive Exercise-Training Programme (SRETP)
Participants will participate in a structured, responsive, exercise training programme (SRETP) on a cycle ergometer. This training programme has been used in numerous international clinical trials, in several patient cohorts including cancer and lung disease.
The training programme will involve short periods of exercise at a high intensity interspersed with short periods of exercise at a moderate intensity. This mode of exercise training is termed aerobic high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Exercise intensities during the interval exercise training program are specific to each participant and will be derived from the CPET. Moderate-intensity exercise is recognised as exercise below the anaerobic threshold. Participants will exercise at 80% of the work rate achieved at the anaerobic threshold (80%AT) for moderate-intensity exercise. High-intensity exercise is recognised as 50% of the difference between the "V" ̇O2 at the anaerobic threshold and the "V" ̇O2 peak (50%∆).
干预措施: Exercise (Other)
