Cardiovascular effects of high-intensity interval aerobic training combined with strength exercise in patients with chronic heart failure. A randomized phase III clinical trial

摘要

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