COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Modified Bruce protocol on treadmill

Fear of activity scale in CAD (FactCAD) was used to assess fear of activity and exercise in subjects with CAD. FactCAD is a novel scale developed specifically for patients with heart disease. Mean time to complete this self-administered scale is 4-7 minutes. The final score of the questionnaire ranges between 0 and 84. High scores indicate higher levels of fear regarding activity or exercise. Functional capacity was assessed by 6MWT and exercise test. The 6MWT was performed to all participants according to the American Thoracic Society guidelines in a 30-m corridor10. The subjects were asked to walk as long distance as they could within 6 minutes. The 6MWT distance was recorded in meters. Exercise test was performed using modified Bruce protocol on treadmill in institutions where technical equipment and experience was available.
