CARDIOVASCULAR EFFECTS OF HIGH-INTENSITY INTERVAL AEROBIC TRAINING COMBINED WITH STRENGTH EXERCISE IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE: A RANDOMIZED PHASE III CLINICAL TRIAL

Background: Aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of high-intensity interval exercise (i.e., 30 sec at 100% of max workload, followed by 30 sec at rest, on 3days/week 45minutes working-out schedule for 12 weeks), on left ventricular function and aortic elastic properties among chronic heart fa...
