The Effect of a High Fiber Diet and High-Intensity Interval Exercise in Patients With HFpEF
NCT05236413
Summary
This study is trying to find out how best to improve common measures of health and survival in those diagnosed with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) through the implementation of 4 weeks of an exercise training program consisting of high intensity interval training, dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH diet), or a combination of the two. Currently there are not established guidelines that have been shown to improve clinical end points in those with this HFpEF.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria: * ≥40 years of age * Diagnosed with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction * NYHA class II-III symptoms * Physician clearance to undergo exercise training * Physician clearance to consume DASH diet * Complete COVID-19 vaccination status Exclusion Criteria: * Unstable angina * Myocardial infarction in the past 4 weeks * Uncompensated heart failure * NYHA class IV symptoms * Complex ventricular arrhythmias * Musculoskeletal contraindications to stationary bicycling exercise * Symptomatic severe aortic stenosis * Acute pulmonary embolus * Acute myocarditis * Uncontrolled hypertension * Medication non-compliance * Unable to follow DASH diet * Food allergies (Nuts, wheat) * Pregnant women
