Exercise program to improve symptoms in atrial fibrillation and heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if starting a supervised exercise program can help older adults with both atrial fibrillation and a type of heart failure called HFpEF feel better and have a better quality of life. You'll be asked to join exercise sessions and have regular check-ins to see how you're doing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years or older
- You have both atrial fibrillation (AF) and a type of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
- You are stable enough to begin an exercise program
- You are not already exercising regularly or in a supervised exercise program
- You do not have certain serious health conditions (like recent stroke, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or active cancer treatment)

This study tests whether a special exercise program that combines different types of training (like aerobic, strength, and balance) can improve heart and muscle function, daily abilities, and quality of life in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). You may benefit if your heart failure is stable and you are able to exercise safely.
This trial tests if a gentle heart-assist device (EECP) combined with a structured exercise and education program (cardiac rehab) can improve health for people with atrial fibrillation. It may help strengthen your heart and reduce symptoms without drugs or surgery.
This study tests whether a short exercise and education program before a first-time ablation for atrial fibrillation improves your recovery and heart fitness. It's for people with mild or no heart failure symptoms and a well-pumping heart.
This trial is testing whether a structured exercise program (combining cardio and strength training) can help people who have already had a procedure to treat atrial fibrillation. It aims to see if this type of training can improve heart health and quality of life.
This study tests whether a program of exercise and healthy eating changes can reduce how often atrial fibrillation (AFib) happens and help you lose weight. It may be a good fit if you are overweight, have AFib, and are ready to make lifestyle changes.
This study looks at how well your heart and body handle exercise before and after a procedure to fix your heart rhythm (cardioversion or pace-and-ablate). It may help doctors understand which treatment works better for people with both atrial fibrillation and heart failure.
