Exercise‐induced changes in cardiovascular function after stroke: a randomized controlled trial
ConclusionsThis was the first study to examine the effects of aerobic exercise after stroke on cardiovascular hemodynamics. High‐intensity exercise improved right‐sided function and early myocardial relaxation. Low‐intensity exercise may also benefit plasma lipid, glucose and inflammatory markers, and ambulatory capacity. This study is an important step towards understanding mechanisms by which exercise may reduce cardiovascular risk and function.
