Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study was to examine the acute effect of dual-task aerobic exercise on cognitive load and myocardial oxygen consumption in healthy sedentary individuals. In this study: 1. Does dual-task exercise applied in addition to aerobic training have an acute effect on cognitive load in healthy sedentary individuals? 2. Does dual-task exercise applied in addition to aerobic training in healthy sedentary individuals have an acute effect on myocardial oxygen consumption, which reflects the indirect oxygen consumption of the heart? The questions were answered.

Description:

To find answers to the questions of the study, healthy sedentary participants were randomized into two groups by online randomization method. One of the groups was the group that received only double-leg aerobic exercise. The other group was the double-leg aerobic exercise group integrated with dual-task-oriented training. Before and after the interventions, the blood pressure and pulse rate of the participants were measured, their cognitive functions were evaluated with the MOCA Test, their reaction times were evaluated with the Nelson Reaction Test, and the acute effect of the trainings was examined.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Cognitive load assessment	Cognitive load change was assessed with the Montreal Cognitive Function Assessment Scale (MOCA).	Time to acute change in measurements 1 hour before the application and 1 hour after the application.
Primary	Myocardial oxygen consumption assessment	Myocardial oxygen consumption was calculated using the Double Product formula of the data obtained from blood pressure and pulse measurement.	Time to acute change in measurements 1 hour before the application and 1 hour after the application.
Secondary	Reaction time evaluation	Reaction time was determined by measuring the distance the ruler caught after the ruler was released.	Time to acute change in measurements 1 hour before the application and 1 hour after the application.
