Aerobic Training, Aerobic-resistance Training and Glucose Profile (CGMS) in Type 2 Diabetes

Acute and Subacute Effects of Aerobic Training vs Aerobic/Resistance Training Upon Glucose Profile Evaluated Through Continuous Glucose Monitoring System in Type 2 Diabetes

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 14 (actual)
• Sponsor: Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 35 Years – 65 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

Many studies were already performed showing beneficial cardiovascular and metabolic effects of physical training for type 2 diabetic patients. However, glucose profile during and immediately after a short period of aerobic and/or resistance training was not studied yet. Continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) has now been added to the repertoire of technological devices useful in the management of patients with diabetes. Such monitoring enables clinicians to detect occult hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia not otherwise discernable with intermittent testing of blood glucose. The main aim of the present study is to investigate continuous blood glucose profile (using CGMS) over 72h, beginning 24h before and ending 24h after a single bout of aerobic or aerobic/resistance physical training in type 2 diabetic patients.
