The R-R intervals recorded by the portable heart rate (HR) monitor (with a sampling rate of 1000 Hz) were downloaded to the Polar Precision Performance program (v. 3.0, Polar Electro, Finland). The software enabled the visualization of the HR and the extraction of a cardiac period (R-R interval) file in the “txt” format. Using digital filtering complemented with manual filtering for the elimination of premature ectopic beats and artifacts, at least 256 R–R intervals were used for the data analysis. Only series with more than 95% sinus rhythm were included in the study (10 ,11 (link)). The heart rate variability (HRV) was analyzed at the following four time points after exercise: seated rest with spontaneous breathing, 0-5 min, 5-10 min and 10-15 min in the standing position. We evaluated the linear and non-linear indices of the HRV. To calculate the indices, we used the HRV Analysis software (Kubios HRV v.1.1 for Windows, Biomedical Signal Analysis Group, Department of Applied Physics, University of Kuopio, Finland)(12 (link)).

Field Walking Test Metabolic Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
During the 3 field walking tests, a portable metabolic system (VO2000, Medical Graphics, St Paul, Minnesota) was used to measure pulmonary gas exchange. Before every test, the system was calibrated according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Measurements were performed at rest in the sitting position and during each field walking test. Metabolic and ventilatory variables were recorded breath by breath and expressed as 30 s means. Heart rate (Polar Precision Performance, Polar Electro Oy, Kem-skin, Finland) and oxygen saturation (S pO 2 ) (Model 9500, Nonin, Onyx 9500 Digital Fingertip Pulse Oximeter, Plymouth, Minnesota) were continuously measured during the test. Arterial blood pressure and Borg scale (0-10) score for dyspnea and lower limb fatigue were obtained at rest and at the end of each test. Data from the test with longest distance walked for both the 6MWT and the ISWT were used for analysis. Maximum predicted heart rate was estimated by 220 À age in years. Exercise intensity was classified based on a percentage of maximum heart rate achieved at the peak of field walking tests as follows: light intensity was from 40 to < 55%, moderate intensity was from 55 to < 70%, vigorous intensity was from 70 to < 90%, and high intensity was $ 90%. 21 A decrease in S pO 2 between rest and exercising (DS pO 2 ) of $ 4% was considered desaturation. 22

Aerobic Step Training Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Aerobic training consisted of stepping onto a platform (20 cm high, 60 cm wide and 60 cm long). The training intensity was set at a cadence corresponding to 60–80% of the maximum stepping cadence achieved on the modified incremental step test (MIST) [12 (link)], performed during baseline. During the training sessions, target heart rate, dyspnoea and fatigue were established as markers of training intensity [17 (link), 18 (link)]. The heart rate was measured using a heart rate monitor (Polar Precision Performance; Polar Electro, Kem-pele, Finland). If participants reported a score for dyspnoea and/or fatigue <4 and/or a target training heart rate below the one established, the exercise intensity was increased by one stepping speed level.

Portable HR Monitor for HRV Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The portable RS800CX heart rate (HR) monitor was essential to record RR intervals with a sampling rate of 1 kHz. The RR intervals were transferred to the Polar Precision Performance program (v.3.0, Polar Electro, Finland). The Polar transmitter distinguishes all heart beats in the left ventricular muscle and the data recorded, transmitting the signal to the computer via an infrared method through a wireless technology. The software enabled the visualization and the extraction of a cardiac period (RR interval) file in “txt” format.
Details of HRV analysis have been published previously37 (link),38 (link) and follow directives from the Task Force7 (link). Throughout RR interval recording, we monitored the respiratory rate that wavered between 9 and 13 cycles per minute.
To evaluate the parasympathetic regulation of HR we analysed pNN50 (percentage of adjacent RR intervals with a difference of duration greater than 50 milliseconds), RMSSD (root-mean square of differences between adjacent normal RR intervals) in the time domain, high frequency band of spectral analysis (HF: 0.15 Hz to 0.4 Hz) in absolute units in the frequency domain and the SD1 Poincaré plot (standard deviation of the instantaneous variability of the beat-to-beat heart rate). We employed the Kubios® HRV v. 2.0 software to compute these indices39 .

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
