Comparison of the Effects of Different Upper Extremity Aerobic Exercise Training Protocols on Arm Functional Capacity in Patients With Heart Failure With Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices

Korábbi kezelés

• Patients who have previously participated in a cardiac rehabilitation program and those who have completed less than 1 year since the program,
• Patients with actively treated malignancy or collagen tissue disease receiving systemic steroids

Más betegség

• Patients with a primary diagnosis of cardiomyopathy and those with heart failure secondary to cardiomyopathy,
• Patients with a history of shoulder pathologies that may restrict upper extremity movement before device implantation (such as severe pain around the shoulder, edema, or shoulder dislocation that restricts upper extremity movement),
• Patients with a history of shoulder surgery (patients with limitations in range of motion),
• Patients with decompensated heart failure,
• Patients with a history of ICD-incompatible shock,
• Patients with a history of unstable angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarction, or cardiac surgery within the last 3 months,
• Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing dialysis where volume load is unstable,
• Persistent ventricular arrhythmias during baseline cardiopulmonary exercise testing.

Egyéb

• Patients who have undergone mastectomy on the affected side or a cerebrovascular event resulting in arm involvement,
• Patients who have experienced acute atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation within the last 3 months,

• Patients aged 18 and over with heart failure who are receiving Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) or Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT)
• At least 3 months have passed since device implantation and there have been no complications at the last device control
• Being in New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II-III
• Patients without cooperation problems
• Patients who volunteer to participate in the study
