Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
cardiopulmonary fitness
The post-training change in cardiorespiratory fitness will be measured by the VO2peak in ml/kg/min.VO2peak will be evaluated by a cardiopulmonary exercise test.
baseline,2 weeks
pulmonary function
Pulmonary function will be measured as the first step of the CPET. Predicted postoperative (PPO) lung functions will be calculated by the Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1). Pulmonary function in patients scheduled for wedge resection will be assessed as a predicted percentage of FEV1. Whereas participants planning to have segmentectomy or lobectomy will be evaluated with PPO FEV1 as a percentage of predicted value.
baseline,2 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (3)
postoperative complications
1 week postoperative
postoperative mortality
3 months, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years postoperative
patient-reported outcomes
baseline,2 weeks, 1 week postoperative, 1 month postoperative and 3 months postoperative
Study Arms (3)
Moderate-intensity Continuous Training (MICT) Group
EXPERIMENTALMICT plan is containing usual care protocol and additional complete a total of 12 supervised moderate-intensity continuous training sessions in 2-3 weeks.
High-intensity Interval Training (HIIT) Group
EXPERIMENTALHIIT plan is containing usual care protocol and additional complete a total of 12 supervised high-intensity interval training training sessions in 2-3 weeks.
Usual care group
NO INTERVENTIONUsual care is including smoking cessation instruction, respiratory exercise, review by a specialist nurse, meeting with the surgeon and anesthetist, and receiving information about preparing for surgery.
Interventions
Participants in MICT group will need to additional complete a total of 12 supervised training sessions in 2-3 weeks.After a warm-up of 5 minutes at 50% at peak WR, the patient start exercising at 60%-70% peak WR for 30-40 minutes (four 5-8 minutes sets, with a 2-min rest in between), and then the patients cooled down for 5 minutes at 50% peak WR. Moderate-intensity exercise training intensity control at 55-74% HRmax or 40-69% VO2peak or PRE12-13 as recommended by guidelines.
Participants in HIIT group will need to additional complete a total of 12 supervised training sessions in 2-3 weeks.After a 5-minute warm-up at 50% at peak WR, the patients complete 20 series of vigorous-intensity sprint (80%-100% peak WR for 30-60s) separated by a low-intensity recovery (30% peak WR or completely rest for 15s), and then the patients cooled down for 5 minutes at 50% peak WR. Participants will begin training at a relatively moderate intensity (60%-65% peak WR) for the first 3 sessions and gradually increase to the target intensity beginning on the 4th session. Intensity control of high-intensity exercise training at 75-90% HRmax or 70-85% VO2peak or PRE14-16 as recommended by guidelines.
