High INtensity Interval Training in pATiEnts with Intermittent Claudication: A Qualitative Acceptability Study (2024)
Journal Article
Pymer, S., Harwood, A., Ibeggazene, S., McGregor, G., Huang, C., Nicholls, A., Ingle, L., Long, J., Rooms, M., Chetter, I. C., & Twiddy, M. (2024). High INtensity Interval Training in pATiEnts with Intermittent Claudication: A Qualitative Acceptability Study. Annals of vascular surgery, 102, 17-24. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avsg.2023.11.043

Background: A novel high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program has demonstrated feasibility for patients with intermittent claudication (IC). The aim of this study was to explore patient perspectives of the HIIT program to inform refinement and...

Extracorporeal Shockwave for Intermittent Claudication and Quality of Life: A Randomized Clinical Trial (2024)
Journal Article
Cai, P., Pymer, S., Raza, A., Ibeggazene, S., Hitchman, L., Chetter, I., & Smith, G. (2024). Extracorporeal Shockwave for Intermittent Claudication and Quality of Life: A Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Surgery, https://doi.org/10.1001/jamasurg.2024.0625

Importance: Intermittent lower limb claudication limits function and quality of life. Supervised exercise programs are not readily available, and a noninvasive alternative is needed. Objective: To assess extracorporeal corporeal shockwave therapy in... Read More about Extracorporeal Shockwave for Intermittent Claudication and Quality of Life: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

High-intensity interval training in patients with intermittent claudication (2023)
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...

The Edinburgh Claudication Questionnaire has poor diagnostic accuracy in people with intermittent claudication (2022)
Journal Article
Ibeggazene, S., Cai, P. L., Smith, G. E., Ibbegazene, S., Stirrup, A., Pymer, S., …Chetter, I. C. (in press). The Edinburgh Claudication Questionnaire has poor diagnostic accuracy in people with intermittent claudication. Vascular, https://doi.org/10.1177/17085381211059665

Background: The screening and diagnosis of intermittent claudication is a challenging process and often relies on the expertise of specialist vascular clinicians. We sought to investigate the diagnostic performance of the Edinburgh Claudication Quest...
