Exercise Training Effect on Quality of Life and Exercise Capacity in Patients With Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Pilot Study
The purpose of this is to develop and implement a pilot study that will demonstrate the
ability to recruit, enroll, retain, conduct exercise training, and collect pre and post
outcomes on the effect of exercise training on quality of life (QOL) and exercise capacity
in patients with a diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF).
