Exercise Training in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction - a Long-term Follow-up

Exercise Training in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction - a Long-term Follow-up

Exercise training is an effective therapy for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. However, it is unclear, whether a one-year intervention has a sustainable effect beyond the active study phase. Hence, this study is a long-term follow-up of patients that were recruited for the OptimEx-Clin and Ex-DHF trials in Munich.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients that were previously randomized to OptimEx-Clin or Ex-DHF in Munich
• Written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

• Pregnancy / breastfeeding
