Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Jun 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The present longitudinal, randomized, and blinded clinical trial aims to: * Evaluate the effects of resistance training on the functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiac biomarkers of hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) on the waiting list for heart transplantation (HTx). * Evaluate the associations between Fried's frailty classification and functional capacity responses to resistance training. The protocol will have a total duration of 12 weeks.
