Summary

Heart Failure occurs when the heart's ability to pump blood is reduced. Heart failure can lead to symptoms of breathlessness, fatigue and ankle swelling, and result in health complications including damage to other organs (e.g. kidneys), reduced function and quality of life. Although the symptoms of heart failure are similar for men and women, there are sex differences. Lifestyle behaviours such as physical activity are important modifiable risk factor for heart failure. Women continue to be underrepresented in heart failure studies and treatment guidelines are male-derived due to these disparities in recruitment. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the physical activity levels, sedentary behaviour, sleep and quality of life and understand the barriers and facilitators to these lifestyle behaviours in women newly diagnosed with heart failure.
