Why the study?
Does physical training improve functional capacity, symptoms, and quality of life in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction?
Does physical training improve functional capacity, symptoms, and quality of life in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction?
Physical training is an essential non-pharmacological therapy for HFpEF that improves functional capacity and quality of life, despite limited evidence for mortality reduction.
Supports exercise for symptoms and QoL in HFpEF; leaves open mortality effects and needs RCTs.
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome caused by functional and/or structural cardiac abnormalities in association with elevated natriuretic peptides or other objective evidence of pulmonary and/or systemic congestion.1 These abnormalities result in increased intracardiac pressures and/or inadequate cardiac output at rest and/or during exertion.2 […] Physical Training in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction
