dc.description.abstract | Patients with substance use disorder (SUD) suffer a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and other lifestyle diseases compared to
the general population. High intensity training has been shown to effectively reduce this risk, and therefore we aimed to examine
the feasibility and effect of such training in SUD patients in clinical treatment in the present study. 17males and 7 females (32 ± 8 yr)
in treatment were randomized to either a training group (TG), treadmill interval training in 4 × 4 minutes at 90–95% of maximal
heart rate, 3 days a week for 8 weeks, or a conventional rehabilitation control group (CG). Baseline values for both groups combined
at inclusion were 44 ± 8 (males) and 34 ± 9 (females)mL ⋅ min−1
⋅ kg−1, respectively. 9/12 and 7/12 patients completed the TG and
CG, respectively. Only the TG significantly improved (15 ± 7%) their maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max), from 42.3 ± 7.2mL ⋅
min−1
⋅ kg−1 at pretest to 48.7 ± 9.2mL ⋅ min−1
⋅ kg−1 at posttest. No between-group differences were observed in work economy, and
level of insomnia (ISI) or anxiety and depression (HAD), but a significant within-group improvement in depression was apparent
for the TG. High intensity training was feasible for SUD patients in treatment. This training form should be implemented as a part
of the rehabilitation since it, in contrast to the conventional treatment, represents a risk reduction for cardiovascular disease and
premature death. | nb_NO |
