Aquatic strength training for chronic heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether high-intensity resistance training in water can improve strength and function in people with chronic heart failure. It's designed for those who are stable on medication and not yet in a rehab program.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 45 and 60 years old
- You have chronic heart failure (NYHA class I, II, or III)
- Your heart's pumping strength (ejection fraction) is above 50%
- You have been on stable heart medications for more than 3 months
- You have not taken part in any heart rehab program recently

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 if short, high-intensity arm exercises can help people with stable heart failure. It looks at safety and improvements in daily function.
This study compares two types of exercise programs—neuromuscular training and resistance training—to see which helps people with weakened heart function improve their ability to perform daily activities. Both programs are designed to be safe and manageable for people living with heart failure.
This trial tests if a special type of exercise, done while lightly restricting blood flow to the arms or legs, can help improve heart function in people with heart failure and a weakened heart pump. If you have heart failure and are planning or already in cardiac rehab, this may be an option.
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can improve daily activity and quality of life in people who have both heart failure and advanced kidney disease. It aims to help you feel stronger and function better.
This trial compares two types of exercise programs—moderate-intensity versus high-intensity interval training—to see which works better for women with stable heart failure. You'll join a supervised rehab program with other women like you.
