Study aim
-
The effect of 8 weeks of cardio functional training by ordinary cardiac rehabilitation protocol on cardiac injuries biomarker serum and functional indices in coronary artery patients.
-
Design
-
The current research is a semi-experimental type, which is conducted with two experimental groups in the form of a pre-and post-test. The population of the current study consists of patients with coronary artery disease. G.power software was used to select the statistical sample size with test power (1_β=0.95) and significance level (α=0.05) participating in the present study. Then the selected people are randomly divided into two control and rehabilitation exercise groups (functional and normal groups).

Settings and conduct
-
After meeting the entry criteria, the patients will be selected under the supervision of a specialist doctor at the Cardiovascular Research Institute of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences. After completing the consent form the selected people, their height, weight, and body composition will be measured. Then, functional tests including a 6MWT, TUG, Gait speed, blood pressure, and resting heart rate are performed. After taking the initial blood sample while fasting on the next day, the subjects are randomly assigned to two groups of functional training and normal training for 8 weeks, 3 sessions per week and each session is 45 minutes, and 72 hours after the last session Practice tests taken in the pre-test will be taken from them again.
