Structured Exercise Programme and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Surgery

Study Description
Brief Summary:
There is a relationship between aerobic fitness and survival both with and without surgery. Some patients can improve their aerobic fitness with a structured exercise programme but currently it is not know how much this could change predicted survival for patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm, or how long this change can be maintained. Survival can be predicted after planned abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery using physical fitness measured with a cardiopulmonary exercise test. The researchers have validated this in a published peer reviewed multicentre study. In this study the patient's fitness will be measured before and after a structured exercise programme and assess if there is any change in their predicted survival. The primary objective of the study is to measure the change in predicted survival for abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery after a structured exercise programme. In addition the patients are asked to complete the following questionnaires:- EQ-5D-5L, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) before and after the exercise programme.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Other: Structured exercise programme Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

The UK has a national AAA screening programme. At the age of 65 men are offered a one off ultrasound test to look for a AAA. If their abdominal aorta is > 5.5 cm they are referred to a Vascular Surgeon. If the patients abdominal aorta is between 3 cm and 5.4 cm they are offered further ultrasound scans to monitor the size of their aorta. This is a surveillance programme. In addition men who have an AAA between 3 cm and 5.4 cm that is detected by an ultrasound scan, CT or MRI performed as part of an investigation for another clinical problem are added to the surveillance programme.

In Torbay and South Devon men in the AAA surveillance programme are referred for a Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test when the AAA reaches 4.5 cm as part of standard clinical practice. This takes place in the Pre assessment Clinic in Torbay Hospital and is performed by a Consultant Anaesthetist. If the patient is able to safely perform the Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test they will be identified as potential participants by the Consultant Anaesthetist.

Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Structured Exercise Programme

An initial 45 min exercise counselling incorporating behaviour modification techniques.

Participants will be offered three sessions per week of aerobic interval exercise on a cycle ergometer over nine weeks. Exercise programmes will be tailored to each patient, taking previous level of activity, mobility and any barriers to exercise into consideration.

Following this:

Participants will be encouraged to comply with current physical activity recommendations: 150 min of moderate intensity aerobic exercise per week (brisk walking / cycling). They will also be sign posted to local exercise facilities.

Other: Structured exercise programme
9 week structured exercise programme. 3 sessions per week. (Intervention).The patient will be invited to the hospital for a 45-minute exercise counselling session, incorporating behaviour modification techniques. These behaviour modification techniques will be reinforced during the supervised exercise sessions. Participants will be offered 3 sessions of supervised aerobic interval exercise sessions per week on a cycle ergometer for 9 weeks.Exercise programmes will be tailored to each patient, taking previous level of activity, mobility and any barriers to exercise into consideration.
Other Name: Qualitiative interviews and questionnaires

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in predicted mortality: 30- day postoperative mortality (%) or median survival (years). [ Time Frame: 3 months post end of exercise programme ]
    We can predict survival after planned abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery using physical fitness measured with a cardiopulmonary exercise test, age and comorbidities. We have validated this in a published peer reviewed multicentre study. We will measure patient's fitness before and after a structured exercise programme and assess if there is any change in their predicted survival. The primary objective of the study is to measure the change in predicted survival for abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery after a structured exercise programme.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in Health related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scores [ Time Frame: 1 week and 3 months post end of exercise programme ]
    Metric: Completion of EuroQol EQ5D-5L questionnaires before the structured exercise programme, within a week of the end of the exercise programme and 3 months after the end of the exercise programme

  2. Change in Psychological Health Status [ Time Frame: 1 week and 3 months post end of exercise programme ]
    Metric: Completion of Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) questionnaire before the structured exercise programme, within a week of the end of the exercise programme and 3 months after the end of the exercise programme

  3. Change in weight [ Time Frame: 1 week and 3 months post end of exercise programme ]
    Metric: Change in weight before the structured exercise programme, within a week of the end of the exercise programme and 3 months after the end of the exercise programme

  4. Change in cardiopulmonary exercise test [ Time Frame: 1 week and 3 months post end of exercise programme ]
    Metric: Change in cardiopulmonary fitness variables (VO2, anearobic threshold, VE/VCO2,oxygen pulse), as measured using an incremental Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) before the structured exercise programme, within a week of the end of the exercise programme and 3 months after the end of the exercise programme

  5. Change in smoking status [ Time Frame: 1 week and 3 months post end of exercise programme ]
    Metric: Change in smoking habits (stopped, reduced) before the structured exercise programme, within a week of the end of the exercise programme and 3 months after the end of the exercise programme
