Abstract

To study the role of bicycle exercise in combined treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcer, its effect on central hemodynamics and microcirculation. 94 patients with gastric and duodenal ulcer. 64 patients received conventional antiulcer treatment plus exercised on bicycle ergometer in free regimen of training. 30 patients on the routine treatment only served as control. Doppler echocardiography demonstrated that ulcer patients have eukinetic hemodynamic type more frequently. After combined treatment with bicycle exercise hyper- and hypokinetic hemodynamic types transformed into the eukinetic one, while the eukinetic type remained unchanged. Bicycle exercise contributed to normalization of microcirculation (as shown by conjunctival biomicroscopy), especially in location of ulcer in the duodenum. Introduction of bicycle exercise in the treatment of ulcer promoted acceleration of ulcer defects healing, especially in patients with hyperkinetic hemodynamics and duodenal ulcer.
