Effects of a Supervised Training Program on Functional Capacity in Patients With HF and Cardiorenal Syndrome

Sponsor: Fundación para la Investigación del Hospital Clínico de Valencia

Summary

This is a prospective study, blinded for the evaluator, randomized (1:1) to receive standard management alone or combined with a training program (aerobic combined with strength exercises) that will be carried out in a single center. After randomization, patients will be clinically evaluated. The primary endpoint (peakVO2) will be assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing combined with echocardiography (echo-CPET) at 12 weeks. Ambulatory patients with heart failure and cardiorenal syndrome and functional class NYHA II-III will be enrolled. A sample size estimation \[alfa: 0.05, power: 80%, a 20% loss rate, and at least a delta change of mean peakVO2: +2,4 mL/kg/min (SD±2)\] of 26 patients (13 per arm) would be necessary to test our hypothesis.
