Abstract
Background and purpose: Studies investigating high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) in stroke typically emphasize treadmill training. However, a literature review suggested that seated devices such as a recumbent stepper or cycle offer a promising alternative for HIIE since exercise can be prescribed using peak power output (PPO). Therefore, this would give health care professionals the ability to monitor and adapt power output for the target heart rate range. The purpose of this secondary analysis was to examine the feasibility of prescribing short-interval, low-volume HIIE using PPO in chronic stroke.
Methods: We used several methods to test feasibility: (1)Acceptability: Measured by the percentage of participants who completed the entire HIIE protocol; (2) Implementation was assessed by the number of reported cardiac or serious adverse events during submaximal exercise testing and HIIE and the average percentage of participants reaching vigorous intensity, defined by the American College of Sports Medicine as at least 77% of age-predicted maximal heart rate (HR max ).
Results: Data were available for 28 participants who were 32.2 (17.2) months post-stroke and 61.4 (11.9) years of age. Twenty-eight participants completed HIIE per protocol. No cardiac or serious adverse events occurred during the submaximal exercise test or during HIIE. The rapid switching between HIIE and recovery showed no evidence of blood pressure reaching unsafe thresholds. Average intensity during HIIE reached 76.8% HR max , which is slightly below the target of 77.0%.
Discussion and conclusions: A single bout of short-interval, low-volume HIIE, prescribed using PPO, was feasible in chronic stroke.

期刊介绍：
The Journal of Neurologic Physical Therapy (JNPT) is an indexed resource for dissemination of research-based evidence related to neurologic physical therapy intervention. High standards of quality are maintained through a rigorous, double-blinded, peer-review process and adherence to standards recommended by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. With an international editorial board made up of preeminent researchers and clinicians, JNPT publishes articles of global relevance for examination, evaluation, prognosis, intervention, and outcomes for individuals with movement deficits due to neurologic conditions. Through systematic reviews, research articles, case studies, and clinical perspectives, JNPT promotes the integration of evidence into theory, education, research, and practice of neurologic physical therapy, spanning the continuum from pathophysiology to societal participation.
