“…The criteria for withdrawal from the training, compliance to drug therapy and aerobic exercise training attendance are as described elsewhere [24]. In brief, participants, were withdrawn if they complained of musculoskeletal pain or if they showed signs of cardiovascular stress such as dizziness and chest pain during the aerobic dance training.…”

Objective: This study investigated the effects of cardiac rehabilitation exercise protocols on physical function (PF) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Study Design and Setting: This randomized controlled trial recruited 70 patients who are in stage II CHF with ejection fraction (≤40%) from a Nigerian university teaching hospital. They were randomly assigned into Exercise Group (EG: n = 35) or Control Group (CG: n = 35). Physical function, activity of daily living (ADL), distance walked in six minutes and grip strength were assessed using a validated ADL questionnaire, six minute walk test and a hand dynamometer respectively. In addition to medication, EG underwent aerobic and upper extremity resistance exercises thrice weekly for eight weeks while CG used medications only. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Alpha level was at p < 0.05. Results: EG and CG were comparable in age and physical characteristics. Physical function and cardiovascular parameters were comparable at baseline (p > 0.05). Significant improvements were noticed at fourth week among participants' ADL (30.0% ± 6.0%), 6MWD (321.7 ± 26.3 m) and VO2 max (8.9 ± 0.4 mL/kg/min) variables within the exercise EG but no sig-* Corresponding author. T. O. Awotidebe et al. 548nificant changes were observed in the CG (p > 0.05). Participants in EG demonstrated more significant improvements in ADL (15.0% ± 5.0%), 6MWD (406.0 ± 29.7 m) and VO 2 max (10.3 ± 0.5 mL/kg/min) (p < 0.05) than CG: ADL (42.0% ± 5.0%), 6MWD (321.0 ± 25.7 m) and VO 2 max (8.9 ± 0.4 mL/kg/min) at eighth (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Cardiac rehabilitation exercise protocols involving self-paced walking, sit-to-stand and upper extremity dynamic strength training improved activity of daily living, walking and functional capacity in patients with stable chronic heart failure.

“…Nonetheless, owing to labeling and drug adverse effects, patients with hypertension often complain of mild symptoms including dizziness, general body fatigue and poor exercise tolerance (6). Poor aerobic exercise performance is associated with low functional capacity (FC) and may predict morbidity and mortality in cardiovascular disease (CVD) (7).…”

Objectives: Assessment of functional capacity (FC) is useful in monitoring patient's progress and also predicts the prognosis. However, sophisticated laboratory equipments are usually required which are not readily available in the clinical settings. This study assessed FC of patients with hypertension using the 6-Minute Walk Test (6-MWT). Method: This cross-sectional study employed purposive sampling technique to recruit 396 patients with mild to moderate hypertension from the Cardiac Care Unit of a Nigerian university teaching hospital. Anthropometric characteristics and cardiovascular parameters were measured using standard procedures. All participants underwent a 6-MWT and the total distance covered was recorded whilst maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max) was estimated using a predictive equation. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics at p<0.05 of significance. Results: Males and females were comparable in physical characteristics and cardiovascular parameters (p>0.05). The total distance walked and estimated VO2 max were 368.9±60.5m and 9.6±0.9mL/kg/min respectively. Cardiovascular parameters were increased significantly ([SBP: t=2.499; p=0.025]; [DBP: t=-3.114; p=0.023] and [HR: t=2.055; p=0.016]) post 6MWT. Furthermore, there was a significant inverse correlation between FC and body mass index (r =-0.342; p=0.002).
