Exercise intolerance (EI) is the primary manifestation of chronic heart failure with preserved
ejection fraction (HFpEF), the most common form of heart failure among older individuals …

At least half of all patients with heart failure (HF) are affected by frailty, a syndrome that limits
an individual ability to recover from acute stressors. While frailty affects up to 90% of patients …

Background Older patients who are hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure have
high rates of physical frailty, poor quality of life, delayed recovery, and frequent …

Aims To describe the prevalence, overlap, and prognostic implications of physical and social
frailties and cognitive dysfunction in hospitalized elderly patients with heart failure. Methods …

Background: Supervised aerobic exercise training (ET) is recommended for stable
outpatients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Frailty, a syndrome …

optimal guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and outcomes in heart failure with …

Importance Frailty is common among older patients with acute decompensated heart failure
(ADHF) and is associated with worse quality of life (QOL) and a higher risk of clinical events …

Little is known regarding the relationship between self-reported gait speed and the
subsequent risk of heart failure (HF) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We sought to clarify …

Frailty is increasingly recognized as a salient condition in patients with heart failure (HF) as
