Physical Impairments in Heart Failure Patients With Pacemakers

NCT03701854 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 138

Last updated 2018-10-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Despite major breakthroughs that have recently been made in pacemakers implanted in heart failure (HF) patients, it is clear that functional impairments and symptoms often remain. However, only limited studies have investigated exercise capacity, muscle strength, pulmonary function, dyspnea, and fatigue in pacemaker implanted HF patients. Therefore, investigators aimed to compare the aforementioned outcomes in patients and healthy controls.
