Abstract

Aim

The objective of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of an endurance exercise programme preceded by ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) for improving functional capacity and quality of life in sedentary older adults.

Methods

A randomised controlled trial was carried out on 31 sedentary older adults. The subjects were allocated to IPC group (n = 15) that performed a six-week programme based on IPC prior to walking, or sham IPC group (n = 16). Measurements of functionality, quality of life and patients’ improvement perception were assessed before (T0) and after (T1) the intervention.

Results

IPC group significantly improved endurance performance, general physical condition, tibialis anterior strength, health-related quality of life and perceived improvement compared to the sham IPC group. No significant changes in self-perceived exertion, heart rate or oxygen saturation in either of the two groups.

Conclusions

The implementation of an endurance exercise programme preceded by IPC improved functional capacity and quality of life in sedentary older adults.

老年人缺血预处理前耐力锻炼计划的有效性

目的本研究的目的是确定在缺血预处理（IPC）之前进行耐力运动计划对改善久坐老年人的功能能力和生活质量的有效性。方法对31例久坐老年人进行随机对照试验。将受试者分为IPC组（n = 15）和假IPC组（n = 16）， IPC组在行走前进行为期6周的IPC计划。在干预前（T0）和干预后（T1）评估功能、生活质量和患者改善感知的测量。结果与假IPC组相比，pc组耐力表现、一般身体状况、胫骨前肌力量、健康相关生活质量和感知改善均有显著改善。两组患者在自我感觉劳累、心率和血氧饱和度方面均无明显变化。结论：在IPC之前实施耐力运动计划可改善久坐老年人的功能能力和生活质量。临床试验政府标识符（NCT05144815）。
