A25 HOME EXERCISE THERAPY IS WELL TOLERATED AND IMPROVES EXERCISE CAPACITY IN PATIENTS WITH CHILD PUGH A AND B CIRRHOSIS

摘要

BackgroundCirrhosis patients have reduced peak aerobic power (peak VO2) that is associated with reduced survival. Supervised endurance training is an effective therapy to increase exercise tolerance in cirrhosis. Many patients have challenges coming in regularly for supervised training. The effect of home-based endurance exercise training (HET) on improving peak VO2 in cirrhosis patients has not been studied.
