Details and patient eligibility

About

It is well-known that not only peripheral muscles, but also respiratory muscles muscle weakness and deconditioning play an important role in low exercise capacity of patients with Heart Failure (HF). Exercise training has been shown to improve exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with heart disease. However, hearth failure patients with pacemaker such as implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), cardiac resynchronization pacemakers or defibrillators (CRT-P or CRT-D) have additional specific issues when performing exercise. No study investigated the effects of different inspiratory muscle training protocols. For this reason, we aimed to investigate the effects of inspiratory muscle training on outcomes in hearth failure patients with pacemaker

Full description

Heart failure patients with pacemaker will be included. Primary outcome measurement is respiratory muscle strength, secondary outcomes are functional exercise capacity, peripheral muscle strength, pulmonary functions, maximal exercise capacity, fatigue, quality of life, depression, physical activity.
