Primary Outcome Measures:
  • flow mediated dilation, serum concentrations of biomarkers, restenosis-rate/ late luminal loss, heart rate variability in SDNN [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Oxygen uptake capacity (mg/kg/min), Sf36 scores [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 40
Study Start Date: January 2006
Study Completion Date: February 2009
Primary Completion Date: February 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Behavioral: exercise training
    Exercise training in groups
Detailed Description:

Pas er randomized to a 6 months training group or none training. At baseline and at 6 months patients are examined with blood tests to measure serum concentrations of inflammatory markers, a test for endothelial function, heart rate variability and a coronary angiogram. Further patients are asked to answer questionnaires concerning mental health (SF36, HADS).
