About

The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the frailty in old patients who have a cardiac disease .

Researchers will determine the improvement in the instability and the strength along twelve sessions based on guided exercises and mobility techniques made by physiotherapists. Research team will also evaluate the medications and diet, as well as laboratory and clinical tests.

Full description

Intitial visit to measure quality of life, instability and strenght, followed by twelve sessions, one each week will be performed
