About
To determine the effects of exercise training on ankle-brachial index and Quality of Life in coronary artery disease patients after stenting. There is a need to develop strategies, not only to prevent restenosis but also to improve patients' functional status and perception of well-being. In particular, it is not well defined whether exercise training can reduce the restenosis rate and improve the outcome after percutaneous intervention (PCI), and its effects on the Ankle-brachial index are not yet well known.
Full description
The existence of PAD in patients with Coronary artery disease (CAD) remarkably increases the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Almost half of the patients, after an initial encouraging improvement in functional capacity and quality of life (QOL) after the PCI, deal with recurrent chest pain that requires medical attention, reduces functional capacity, and creates a status of psychological distress.
