Venous Function in Cardiovascular Disease Patients

Norwegian University of Science and Technology10 enrolled

Overview

The primary aim is to determine the acute effect of two different training interventions on venous plasticity in patients with myocardial infarction (MI), revascularization or coronary artery graft surgery compared to age-matched healthy subjects.

Compare the effect of 4 x 4 minutes at 90 - 95 % of peak heart rate separated with 3 minutes at 70 % of peaks heart rate and moderate continuous exercise at 70 % of peak heart rate on venous function.
