Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trail is to compare the effects of preoperative exercise training of different intensities on short-term cardiorespiratory function and postoperative outcomes in patients scheduled for lung resections.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital will be the lead center, with an additional 3 hospitals designated as satellite centers for the study. To sum up, these centers will recruit a total of 100 consenting patients. Following informed consent and baseline testing, participants will be randomized into one of the three groups in a 2:1:1 ratio: MICT, HIIT, or usual care (UC).

Participants in the MICT and HIIT groups perform a total of 12 sessions of supervised exercise training, while participants randomized to the UC group receive no extra rehabilitation or physical activity. All participants are followed-up at the completion of the intervention period.Primary outcomes including cardiopulmonary exercise function and pulmonary function will be measured at diagnosis (lung cancer patients scheduled for surgical treatment) (V1), baseline (V2), and post-intervention (V3). The baseline assessment includes medical history and examination. To lessen the psychological burden of the study on the patients, the baseline examination phase could not be repeated if the examinations had been completed during the screening phase and the date of completion was within 7 days prior to enrollment. The patient's postoperative complications, chest tube removal time and hospital length of stay (LOS) will be recorded on the day of discharge (V4). Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) will be measured at baseline (V2), post-intervention (V3), day of discharge (V4), 1 month postoperative (V5), and 3 months postoperative (V6) with ongoing follow-up. Participant blood samples and diaphragm ultrasound will be retained at baseline(V2) and post-intervention (V3) as available. Postoperative deaths will be followed up by telephone on the day of discharge (V4), 3 months postoperatively (V6), 1 year postoperatively (V7), 3 years postoperatively (V8), and 5 years postoperatively (V9).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Moderate-intensity Continuous Training (MICT) Group

MICT plan is containing usual care protocol and additional complete a total of 12 supervised moderate-intensity continuous training sessions in 2-3 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

moderate-intensity continuous training

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants in MICT group will need to additional complete a total of 12 supervised training sessions in 2-3 weeks.After a warm-up of 5 minutes at 50% at peak WR, the patient start exercising at 60%-70% peak WR for 30-40 minutes (four 5-8 minutes sets, with a 2-min rest in between), and then the patients cooled down for 5 minutes at 50% peak WR. Moderate-intensity exercise training intensity control at 55-74% HRmax or 40-69% VO2peak or PRE12-13 as recommended by guidelines.

High-intensity Interval Training (HIIT) Group

HIIT plan is containing usual care protocol and additional complete a total of 12 supervised high-intensity interval training training sessions in 2-3 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

high-intensity interval training

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants in HIIT group will need to additional complete a total of 12 supervised training sessions in 2-3 weeks.After a 5-minute warm-up at 50% at peak WR, the patients complete 20 series of vigorous-intensity sprint (80%-100% peak WR for 30-60s) separated by a low-intensity recovery (30% peak WR or completely rest for 15s), and then the patients cooled down for 5 minutes at 50% peak WR. Participants will begin training at a relatively moderate intensity (60%-65% peak WR) for the first 3 sessions and gradually increase to the target intensity beginning on the 4th session. Intensity control of high-intensity exercise training at 75-90% HRmax or 70-85% VO2peak or PRE14-16 as recommended by guidelines.

Usual care group

Usual care is including smoking cessation instruction, respiratory exercise, review by a specialist nurse, meeting with the surgeon and anesthetist, and receiving information about preparing for surgery.
