Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Despite the establishment of feasibility and physiologic benefits, questions remained about the safety and clinical effectiveness of physical exercise in patients with heart failure. In 2002, however, the Heart Failure: A Controlled Trial Investigating Outcomes of Exercise Training trial showed that physical exercise is safe, improves health status, increases cardiorespiratory capacity, and yields a modest reduction in clinical events among patients with HF. The magnitude of these benefits may relate to the volume of exercise completed.
