An interventional study of resistance and aerobic training exercises in Heart Failure, sponsored by Cairo University. Completed at 1 site in Egypt. Open to male participants aged 55 Years to 65 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-01-02.
Sponsored by Cairo University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of intra-session exercise modes sequence on ventricular function in patients with chronic heart failure.
Sixty male patients with chronic heart failure will be recruited in this study from National Heart Institute Giza, Egypt. Their ages will be ranged from 55 to 65 years old and they will be randomly divided into three groups as following:
The exercise training programme for both study groups A and B will be applied once per day, three times per week for 12 consecutive weeks.
Inclusion criteria:
All participated patients will be:
Exclusion criteria:
Patients who meet one of the following criteria will be excluded:
RESEARCH ETHICS
The protocol of this study will be approved by the ethics committee of scientific research at the Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University. The study procedure will be explained in details for every patient before the initial assessment. All patients will be informed about the purpose, nature, and potential risks of the study, and a written informed consent will be obtained before participation in the study. The participants' right confidentiality will be observed strictly.

Left ventricular ejection fraction
left ventricular ejection fraction is measured by using echocardiography it is measured in percentage %
Time frame: 12 weeks
The Minnesota living with heart failure questionnaire (MLWHFQ)
calculate minnasota living with heart failure questionnaire score 21 item MLHFQ uses a 6-point scale where 0 = no, 1= very little and 5= very much
Time frame: 12 weeks
Cardiorespiratory fitness 6 minute walk test
after the test we calculate the distance patient walked in meters and we use this distance to evaluate the cardiopulmonary fitness
Time frame: 12 weeks
Vo2 Max
by using distance from the 6MWT in meters we can calculate the vo2 max using specific equation
Time frame: 12 week
Blood pressure
blood pressure systolic by using the sphygmomanometer palpatory method - diastolic by using the auscultatory method by sphygmomanometer and stethoscope
Time frame: 12 weeks
Rate of pressure product
rate pressure product will be calculated by this equation : patient heart rate \* systolic blood pressure / 1000
Time frame: 12 week
