Exercise program aims to restore strength after dengue and chikungunya
NCT ID NCT07600879
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a 20-session exercise program can improve muscle strength, reduce fatigue, and help with balance in people who had dengue or chikungunya in the last five years. Fifty-four adults will do supervised aerobic, strength, and breathing exercises twice a week. The goal is to see if this rehab can ease long-lasting symptoms and improve quality of life.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Exercise rehabilitation (aerobic, anaerobic, and respiratory training)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a standard rehab program to help people recover muscle strength, reduce fatigue, and improve balance after dengue or chikungunya.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 54 participants and no randomization, so results may not apply to everyone. The exercises are supervised and generally safe, but some people may find them too intense.
