Abstract

The objective of this review was to compare the influence of combined aerobic and strength training (EAFC) with aerobic training (EA) on aerobic capacity, muscle strength and other relevant variables in cardiac rehabilitation (RC) of patients with coronary artery disease (EAC). We conducted a review of systematic reviews and meta-analyzes in PubMed up to 27 April 2019. A total of 30 articles were identified and 3 studies were finally selected for this review. The overall quality of the included studies was moderate (AMSTAR-2). EAFC showed greater improvements compared to EA on aerobic capacity, body composition and muscle strength in adult patients (mean age range: 45-73 years) with EAC. This review adds additional evidence that EAFC presents clinically significant improvements in aerobic capacity and muscular strength compared to EA. More studies are needed to establish consistent conclusions about the effects of EAFC compared to EA on quality of life. In addition, more studies are needed to analyze different protocols of the EAFC and to establish their most efficient prescription in CR of this population.
