Effects of Progressive Resistance Training Compared With Aerobic Training in Patients With Hemophilia

Quality of Life Clinical Trial

Official title:
Measurement of Subjective and Objective Indices After Progressive Resistance Training Compared With Aerobic Training in Patients With Hemophilia: a Randomised Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to assess the effects of progressive resistance training compared with aerobic training, among those with hemophilia. Participants will be divided into two groups. The control group will receive an aerobic exercise protocol, and the resistance group will follow a resistance training program. Each group will receive a total of eight sessions. Target muscles are deltoids, biceps, triceps, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves. Subjective and objective assessment will be performed for each group, to determine the effectiveness of each intervention.

Clinical Trial Description

Participant's height, weight and age will be recorded for pre-test anthropometric data. Height will be measured using a stadiometer, and weight will be measured with an electronic scale. Treatment sessions will be conducted twice a week, for 8 weeks. The control group will be administered a standard physical therapy intervention program which will consist of active muscle stretching and aerobic exercises. Exercises will include: - Flexion, extension and abduction at the shoulder joint for anterior, middle and posterior fibers of deltoid - Flexion and extension at the elbow for biceps and triceps trachii - Flexion and extension at the knee joint for quadriceps and hamstring muscles - Plantar flexion at the ankle joint for gastrocnemius and soleus Three sets of ten repetitions of each exercise will be done. The intervention group will undergo a progressive resistance training program consisting of active muscle stretching and resistance training. Exercise for intervention group will consist of: - Resisted flexion, extension and abduction at the shoulder joint for anterior, middle and posterior deltoid, using dumbbells - Resisted flexion and extension at the elbow for biceps and triceps trachii, using dumbbells - Resisted flexion and extension of knee joint for quadriceps and hamstring muscles, using therabands - Resisted dorsiflexion and plantar flexion of gastrocnemius and soleus, using therabands Resistance will be increased on basis of progressive overload principle. Three sets of ten repetitions will be performed per muscle group. Initial weight of the dumbbells will be 1kg and will be increased by 0.5kg per week. Therabands used will be Yellow, Red, Green and Blue. Resistance for therabands will be upgraded every two weeks. Treatment time per group will be approximately 40 minutes. Exercises will be progressed in a gradual manner to give participants time to build muscle strength. ;
