Physical Training in Patients with Congestive Heart Failure

摘要: Multiple compensatory mechanisms operate to preserve exercise tolerance in patients with left ventricular failure. Exercise capacity of most chronic heart failure is limited by dyspnea or fatigue, both. Maximal stress testing direct assessment peak O2 uptake an essential measurement planning conditioning programs, which are now attracting The biochemical and histologic patterns skeletal muscle changes seen consistent the effects long-term deconditioning normal subjects. Recent studies have suggested beneficial training subjects moderate even severe dysfunction showing increased consumption, anaerobic threshold, leg blood flow, central arteriovenous oxygen difference decreased lactate accumulation. However, a number questions remain unanswered. for treatment should be determined on individual basis used caution.
