Protocol summary

Study aim
Effects of aerobic-breathing training on sleep quality,fatigue,functional capacity (VO2 peak), rest and peak hemodynamic indices in patients with mitral valve prolapse.
Design
Clinical trial with control group, parallel-group trial, single-blinded, randomized, phase 2 clinical trial on 30 patients. Opaque envelopes will be used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
Thirty women with MVP will be selected from Tabriz and randomly assigned to two experimental groups (aerobic plus breathing exercises) and one control group. The outcome assessor and statistical analyst will be blinded to group assignments. Variables will be measured at two-time points: before and after the 12-week exercise protocol.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1- A history of more than three years of mitral valve prolapse, 2-mild to moderate Mitral regurgitation, 3- normal ventricular function, 4- no history of stroke, panic attacks, hypertension, mental or cognitive disorders, or valve replacement or repair surgery Exclusion criteria: Other major cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, diabetes, and pregnancy.
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Participated in 12 weeks of aerobics combined with breathing exercises, 3 weekly sessions for 45 to 70 minutes each at a moderate intensity. Control group: will Continue with their usual daily activities
Main outcome variables
Sleep quality, fatigue, functional capacity (VO2peak), resting and peak blood pressure, resting and peak heart rate, resting and peak RPP

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Simple randomization method will be used. Allocation concealment will be conducted by a researcher not involved in the study. Opaque, identical, sealed envelopes will be prepared, containing the type of intervention according to a randomly generated allocation sequence. The envelopes, numbered from 1 to 30, will be distributed based on the order of participants entering the study.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
The outcome assessor will be blinded to the group differences in both pre-test and post-test phases. The data analyst will also be blinded to the group differences and the groups will be entered into SPSS with codes 1 and 2.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Engage in 12 weeks of combined aerobic and breathing exercise training, three days a week for 45 to 70 minutes. The intensity of the workout will be adjusted based on heart rate and Borg's perceived exertion. According to the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines, a heart rate 20 to 30 beats above resting heart rate and a Borg's perceived exertion score of 4 to 6 (relatively mild to slightly intense) would be the target intensity.
