About

Diastolic heart failure is now being recognized as a key form of heart failure in older people. The focus of this research is to study ways to improve and maintain physical activity and functioning. This knowledge may improve the health and well-being in people with diastolic heart failure.

Full description

The purpose of this project is to better understand how endurance and fatigue relate to performing daily activities and how we might better improve endurance and reduce fatigue through an exercise program.
