Personalized rehab for veterans with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a tailored exercise program for veterans who have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It aims to see if a personalized rehab plan can improve your heart function and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have heart failure symptoms that make you tired or short of breath during everyday activities (Class II or III).
- You need a history of high blood pressure.
- Your heart's pumping strength must be normal or near normal (ejection fraction of 50% or higher).
- Your heart muscle must be thickened (confirmed by imaging like an echocardiogram or CT scan).
- You must have evidence that the heart is stiff and not relaxing properly (diastolic dysfunction), based on at least 2 of 5 specific heart measures.
- You must be able to take part in an exercise program, as approved by your doctor or a study provider.
