Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the changes of cardiorespiratory fitness and left ventricular function in type 2 diabetes after uncomplicated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.

We hypothesize that exercise capacity, left ventricular diastolic function, and biochemical data improves after 12-wk exercise training in patients with type 2 diabetes underwent CABG.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent
  • Coronary Arteriosclerosis
  • Post Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise training

Subjects attended a supervised treadmill training session three times per week in an outpatient facility for three months. Training duration was 30 minutes per session, including a 5-minute warm-up and cool-down phase. Training intensity was initially set at about 60% of HR reserve and close to the anerobic threshold (AT) and the gradually increased as tolerated.

OTHER

Control

Subjects received general education including proper diet, regular physical activity or medical care if necessary through an interview with a physical therapist.
