No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Exercise intolerance is a major limiting symptom in patients with CHF. However the poor correlation between the hemodynamic parameters of left ventricular performance at rest and exercise performance has led to the concept that peripheral factors such as muscle perfusion and muscle metabolism play a role as determinants of exercise capacity.
