Exercise training for frailty and fall risk in heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can reduce frailty and fall risk in people with chronic heart failure, and what happens when training stops. It may help you feel stronger and more stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You have been diagnosed with heart failure (with reduced or preserved pumping function)
- Your heart failure causes symptoms like shortness of breath or fatigue during mild activity (NYHA class II or III)
- You are not currently taking part in a structured exercise program
- You do not have a recent heart attack (within the last 4 weeks), severe valve problems, or uncontrolled heart rhythm issues
- You can walk without help and do not have major nerve, muscle, or bone problems that prevent exercise

This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help people with heart failure. It focuses on people who are currently not very active, aiming to improve symptoms and heart/fitness measures safely.
This study compares two types of exercise programs (neuromuscular vs. resistance training) to see which one better improves daily functioning in people with heart failure. If you join, you'll do a supervised exercise routine that may help you feel stronger and more capable in your everyday activities.
This trial tests whether high-intensity interval training can improve heart function and fitness in people with a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but doesn't fill properly. You will do supervised exercise sessions to see if it helps you feel better and be more active.
This study tests if a specific type of leg-strengthening exercise (eccentric resistance training) can help people with stable chronic heart failure feel better and move more easily. If you have heart failure and are not in an acute or very severe stage, this might be an option to improve your daily life.
This trial tests a structured exercise-based heart rehab program for people with a specific type of heart failure called HFpEF. The goal is to help you feel better and improve your heart health. If you join, you'll be guided through safe exercises and monitored by a team.
This trial tests whether a Spanish health-clinic–guided exercise program can improve frailty in people who are starting to become frail (“pre-frail”). It may help you build strength and walking ability through supervised physical activity.
