2019
OBJECTIVE: This review aimed to determine the impact of exercise protocol among peripheral artery disease patients. Literature search was done from 2005 to 2018. METHODS: Databases such as Google Scholar, Medline and PubMed was reconnoitred for the purpose of research articles by using key words like exercise training, peripheral artery disease, ankle brachial index, haemodynamic and atherosclerosis. Studies fulfilling the inclusion criteria were retrieved and encompassed in the present study. RESULTS: The heterogeneity of the studies included in the analysis and the impact of exercise programmes on outcome measures were assessed by using hedge gstatistical model.Of the54 studies found, 9(16.6%) were analysed that suggest supervised and structured exercises programmes significantly improved (p<0.05) outcome variables. CONCLUSIONS: Future randomized controlled trials related to the duration of exercises regimes are required in order to tailor the training programmes according to the need of individuals.
