ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The goal of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the effects of exercise training on long-term health and cardiorespiratory fitness in participants with CHD after surgery and to investigate the optimal type of exercise training for post-operative patients and how to improve adherence to it.METHODS:
We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science from the date of the inception of the database through August 2021.RESULTS:
Altogether, 1424 records were identified in the literature search. Studies evaluating outcomes between exercise training and usual care among post-operative patients with CHD were included. The assessed outcomes were quality of life and cardiorespiratory fitness. We analysed heterogeneity by using the I2 statistic and evaluated the evidence quality according to the recommendation by the Cochrane Collaboration. Nine randomised controlled trials were included. The evidence showed that exercise interventions increased peak oxygen consumption (mean difference = 2.29 [95% CI 0.43, 4.15]; p = 0.02, I2 = 0%). However, no differences in scores of health-related quality of life and pulmonary function were observed between the experimental and control groups.CONCLUSIONS:
In conclusion, participation in a physical exercise training programme was safe and improved fitness in patients after surgery for CHD. We recommend that post-operative patients with CHD participate in physical exercise training. Additional research is needed to study the various forms of exercise training and their impact on quality of life.Palabras clave
