Home-based high intensity interval training in patients with intermittent claudication: a systematic review protocol. Journal of Vascular Societies Great Britain and Ireland, 3(3), 155-159. https://doi.org/10.54522/jvsgbi.2024.103

Introduction: The aim of this systematic review is to consider the evidence base for home-based high intensity interval training (HIIT) in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). Prior knowledge of the evidence base suggests that there may be l...

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pymer, S., Harwood, A. E., Prosser, J., Waddell, A., Rhavindhran, B., McGregor, G., Ibeggazene, S., Huang, C., Twiddy, M., Nicholls, A. R., Ingle, L., Carroll, S., He, H., Long, J., Rooms, M., & Chetter, I. C. High-intensity interval training in patients with intermittent claudication. Presented at 2022 Vascular Society of Great Britain and Ireland Annual Scientific Meeting, Brighton, UK

Objective: Provision, uptake, adherence, and completion rates for supervised exercise programs (SEP) for intermittent claudication (IC) are low. A shorter, more time-efficient, 6-week, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program may be an effecti...

Assessment of the diagnostic accuracy of automated ankle brachial pressure index devices in patients with diagnosed or suspected peripheral arterial disease: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis. Journal of Vascular Societies Great Britain and Ireland, 2(2), 91-96. https://doi.org/10.54522/jvsgbi.2022.053

Background: The ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) is a common diagnostic tool used in the assessment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The Doppler ultrasound technique is regarded as the gold-standard method for ABPI measurement; however, time...
