Exercise training for advanced heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help people with advanced heart failure who are already receiving medication to support their heart. It aims to see if physical training improves their strength and daily function.

This study tests whether resistance training (strength exercises) can help people waiting for a heart transplant. It is for patients who have been on the transplant list for less than a month and are stable enough to exercise 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 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 whether a structured exercise training program can improve symptoms and quality of life in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), a condition where the heart pumps normally but is too stiff to fill properly. Participants will receive exercise training alongside their usual heart failure medications.
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.
