Exercise Programs for Women with Heart Failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 40 and 70 years old.
- You have stable heart failure (your doctor may call it NYHA class II or III).
- Your doctor has said it's safe for you to start an exercise rehab program.
- You can walk about 150 meters (roughly 1.5 football fields) without stopping.
- You have not had a heart attack or unstable heart failure in the last 4 weeks.
- You do not have severe arrhythmias, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or chest pain during exercise.

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 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 short, high-intensity arm exercises can help people with stable heart failure. It looks at safety and improvements in daily function.
This trial tests a special exercise program for people over 65 who were recently hospitalized for heart failure and are now stable. It aims to see if a heart rehab plan tailored to your needs helps you recover and feel better.
This trial compares core, aerobic, and combined exercise in patients doing phase II cardiac rehab. It aims to find which type works best for heart recovery.
This study looks for blood and other markers that can explain how people with heart failure respond to exercise training. It may help researchers better tailor exercise or treatment plans for heart failure in the future.
