RESUMO
AIM: to investigate the possibility of a new method--interval hypo-hyperoxic training (IHHT)--in the correction of the individual components of metabolic syndrome. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 35 patients with metabolic syndrome (alimentary obesity 1-3rd stage [BMI over 30 kg/m2], violation of carbohydrate tolerance or diabetes mellitus type II, hypertension and dyslipidemia). All patients were random separated into three groups: control (11 pers., basic therapy), trial 1 (13 pers. who have undergone 12 procedures of the IHHT) and trial 2 (11 pers. who have undergone IHHT in parallel with systemic hyperthermia and vibrating massage hardware). Course duration was 21 days average. Prior to the course procedures IHHT and the 3-day 4 upon completion all patients were fully examined. This examination included history taking, assessment of diet, psychometric testing, counseling psychologist to determine the type of feeding behavior, anthropometric measurements; body impendansemetria, biochemical study of blood determining the level of total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, TG, fasting plasma glucose (GP), 6-minute walk test to assess physical performance. Was established that the use of hypo-hyperoxic exercise (alone or in combination with systemic hyperthermia and hardware vibratory) leads to a significant reduction in body weight. It mainly arise by reducing fat mass accompanied by a reduction of total cholesterol, LDL, GPN, optimization of blood pressure, increased hypoxic stability, physical endurance, improved mental status. At individual selection of the course structure, dosing of hypoxic effects, combined with other physiotherapy method has some promise in treatment and rehabilitation of patients with metabolic syndrome.
