Adding yoga to exercise rehab for heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding yoga to a hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation program can improve the health and well-being of people with heart failure. It might help you feel better and manage your condition more effectively.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- Your doctor must have diagnosed you with heart failure that has a reduced ejection fraction (the heart's pumping ability is lower than normal).
- You should have symptoms that place you in NYHA class II or III, meaning you feel short of breath or tired with mild activity (class II) or even with minimal activity (class III).
- You must be able to attend the full hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation program on your own.
- You should not have other health conditions that would prevent you from doing yoga or finishing a year of exercise training.
- You should not be pregnant or planning to become pregnant, and you should not have any heart surgery or procedure planned in the next 3 months.
