Abstract

Objective
Intermittent claudication occurs in 20 % of the population over 70 and treatment includes a supervised exercise programme (SEP). Whilst there is evidence demonstrating walking improvements following a SEP there is conflicting data on the physiological changes behind this; therefore this study aimed to explore and identify the potential cardiovascular and musculoskeletal changes with exercise.
