Brief Summary: Eccentric cycling allows high intensities with low metabolic costs Therefore the aim of this project is to investigate whether ECC improves exercise capacity and possibly hemodynamics during prolonged rehabilitation programs in patients with PVD
Detailed Description: Eccentric cycling exercise ECC allows training at low metabolic costs and may therefore be valuable for patients with pulmonary vascular disease PVD For these patients regular exercise training has an evidence level 1A recommendation in the current guidelines Exercise training during longer and regular periods provides chronic adaptation for which ECC was recently found to have a greater effectiveness than CON by increasing muscle strength hypertrophy six-minute walking distance and furthermore by increasing maximum oxygen uptake VO2max especially in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD chronic left heart failure or coronary heart disease

Furthermore the investigators conducted an RCT in which the investigators exposed patients with PVD to ECC and concluded that ECC is a feasible and well-tolerated exercise modality for PVD patients with severely lower O2 demand and load to the right ventricle

Therefore the aim of this project is to investigate whether ECC improves exercise capacity and possibly hemodynamics during prolonged rehabilitation programs in patients with PVD
