Summary

Physiological changes caused by hematological diseases associated with high dose chemotherapy have a negative impact on patient's functionality, making them more fragile and vulnerable after hematopoietic cell transplantation. Currently, randomized studies have shown that physical exercise can contribute to improve Quality of Life of these patients. In this randomized controlled trial, we will study the effect of using the bicycle ergometer on the physical performance of patients undergoing transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCT).

Aerobic training with cycle ergometer

Patients start with an initial warm-up of 2 minutes, with rotations per minute free, without load. Progressively, the load of the exercise cycle increases every minute up to the supported limit or up to 60% - 70% of maximum heart rate (HRmax). The training will be carried out for 20 continuous minutes, being interrupted whenever the heart rate (HR) reaches 90% of the maximum expected for the age and / or the loss of effort perceived in the BORG scale, above 8 on a scale of 0 to 10.
