摘要: Abstract Purpose: This study was performed to test the effectiveness of a formal supervised exercise program against home-based for both walking ability and quality life endpoints. Methods: Patients with arterial claudication were randomized either 12-week (SUPEX) weekly lectures relating peripheral vascular disease or home group (HOMEX) who attended an identical lecture received instruction. The population included 29 men 26 women, mean age 69.1 ± 8.1 years. Forty-seven patients completed program, 46 available testing at completion, 38 6-month testing. Claudication pain time (CPT) maximum (MWT) on progressive treadmill assessed baseline, 6 months. Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) administered these intervals assess effects life.
