  • Title: [The effects of coronary insufficiency on physiotherapy for peripheral arteriopathy (author's transl)].
    Author: Goepfert PC, Maureira JJ, Bourrier C.
    Journal: J Mal Vasc; 1980; 5(3):193-4. PubMed ID: 7462852.
    Abstract:
    The cardiac counter-indications to exercise training for a patient with peripheral arteriopathy are seldom absolute: it is the case of evolutive coronary insufficiency or cardiac insufficiency, or serious rhythm disturbances not controlled by treatment. The exercise test on a cycle ergometer can distinguish coronary or either peripheral arterial disease is predominant. If the arteriopathy is dominant, the rehabilitation program may be pursued unhindered, although one must remain vigilant. If the coronary disease is predominant, one must teach the patient not to go above the heart rate at which the ischemia appears on the E.K.G.
