Summary

Introduction: Atherosclerotic Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is the leading cause of mortality in the western world. To maintain homeostasis of the vessel wall, vascular cells produce a high level of heat shock proteins (HSP), among which is Hsp70, to stimulate innate immunity and face stress.

Methods: This is a clinical trial where 260 individuals were evaluated by a screening test employing the Ankle-Arm Index (ABI), 220 of them were not within risk value (0.91 to 0.99 mmHg). In the clinical trial, 32 individuals were included. A control group and an experimental group were formed. Aerobic exercise intervention was performed for 12 weeks. The level of Hsp70 was evaluated, physical and clinical measurements were applied at the beginning and at the end of the trial.

Conditions

  • Peripheral Arterial Disease

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise

The experimental group started an exercise program to achieve 65% to 80% of the maximum heart rate by using a pulsometer that measured the heart rate in order to get to the moderate intensity activity goal. The exercise session was 60 minutes long, three times per week, completing 180 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise, for 12 weeks in total.
