简要总结
Post-stroke deficits are highly common and functional impairment persists throughout life after stroke. Skeletal muscle mass and strength are fundamental contributors to mobility throughout the adult life course. Stroke-related muscle atrophy contributes to loss of strength, and declines in lower extremity function, cardiorespiratory fitness, and walking independence and post-stroke sarcopenia. Improving the quantity and function of skeletal muscle needs to be an important therapeutic target after stroke. Resistance exercise training (RET) has been shown to increase skeletal muscle mass, strength and power, reduce oxidative stress, improve cardiac function, and better regulate lipids after stroke. However, the feasibility and the effects of a power focused RET program for individuals with stroke need to be examined.
详细描述
This study is a single-group, open label trial examining the feasibility and preliminary effect estimates of a 10-week power-focused exercise training program in people living with stroke. Fifteen participants with chronic stroke will participate in the exercise program 3 times per week for 10 weeks at a progressive intensity. The program will take place at a community exercise gym built for older adults and people with physical disabilities. Feasibility outcomes will be assessed throughout the trial. Effectiveness outcomes will be assessed at baseline and immediately post-intervention.

结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility: Participant recruitment
时间窗: Through study completion, over 13 months
Recruitment rates (n/week) and the number of recruited subjects (n) will be reported. Criteria for success include recruitment of ≥1 participant per month and n=15 recruited in ≤13 months.
Feasibility: Serious and non-serious adverse events
时间窗: Through study completion, over 13 months
Number of adverse events (i.e., deaths, serious and non-serious adverse events, n) will be reported. Criteria for success is 0 deaths or serious adverse events and \<5 non-serious adverse events.
Feasibility: Sex and gender distribution
时间窗: Through study completion, over 13 months
Recruitment of males and females, men, women and gender diverse participants will be recorded (n, %). Criteria for success is \<60% (n\<9) of any sex or gender identity.
Feasibility: Attendance and attrition
时间窗: Through study completion, over 13 months
Percentage of sessions attended (%) and lost to follow-up (n) will be reported. Criteria for success includes ≥85% sessions attended and ≤10% (n\<2) lost to follow-up.
Feasibility: Exercise tolerance
时间窗: Through study completion, over 13 months
Adherence to the prescribed exercises (%) and abnormal blood pressure responses to exercise (n) will be recorded. Criteria for success includes ≥85 of participants performing ≥85% of sets at the prescribed intensity, and ≤25% of weeks experiencing ≥1 abnormal blood pressure response (SBP ≥210 or ≥190 for males and females, respectively).
Feasibility: Satisfaction
时间窗: Immediately post-intervention (week 10)
Satisfaction will be measured with a 5-point Likert scale (1 = not at all satisfied, 2 = not satisfied, 3 = neither satisfied or not satisfied, 4 = satisfied, and 5 = completely satisfied). Criteria for success is ≥85% of participants reporting being satisfied or completely satisfied with the program.
