Gender related predictors of limited exercise capacity in heart failure
Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of gender on the prediction of limited exercise capacity in heart failure (HF) patients assessed by 6 minute walk test (6-MWT). Methods In 147 HF patients (mean age 61 ± 11 years, 50.3% male), a 6-MWT and a Doppler echocardiographic study were performed in the same day. Conventional cardiac measurements were obtained and global LV dyssyn...
متن کاملExercise training in heart failure
Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a common condition with a poor prognosis. It is associated with poor exercise tolerance and debilitating symptoms. These symptoms appear to be associated with pathophysiological changes that occur systemically in the patient with CHF. Exercise training in carefully selected patients has been shown to be safe and to improve exercise capacity. Many of the pathophysi...
متن کاملAbsence of exercise capacity improvement after exercise training program: a strong prognostic factor in patients with chronic heart failure.
BACKGROUND Exercise training is established as adjuvant therapy for chronic heart failure, but the prognostic value of improvement in exercise capacity after exercise training has never been evaluated. METHODS AND RESULTS In this prospective bicentric study, all chronic heart failure patients with left ventricular ejection fraction <45% who underwent an exercise training program in a cardiac ...
متن کاملExercise training in heart failure improves quality of life and exercise capacity.
AIMS Benefit from exercise training in heart failure has mainly been shown in men with ischaemic disease. We aimed to examine the effects of exercise training in heart failure patients < or = 75 years old of both sexes and with various aetiology. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifty-four patients with stable mild-to-moderate heart failure were randomized to exercise or control, and 49 completed the stud...
متن کاملRecommendations for exercise training in chronic heart failure patients.
The treatment of heart failure has changed dramatically during the years. The radical shift in concept is illustrated by the change from sympathomimetic drugs to beta-blocking agents, representing a striking example of how medical management of heart failure has evolved in an unanticipated fashion. Exercise and physical activity is another treatment area being completely readdressed and revised...
