Summary
The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of resistance exercise and training on cardiovascular function of peripheral artery disease patients.
Detailed description
Several studies have shown that strength training can promote important benefits for the cardiovascular system in healthy subjects and patients with chronic diseases. However, the effects of resistance exercise on cardiovascular function in intermittent claudication patients are unclear. In addition, it also do not know the chronic effects on cardiovascular function in these patients.
