Improving Exercise Capacity in Recent Heart Transplant Recipients

Abstract

The authors reported that 78 heart transplant recipients (HIT: n=37, mean age 50 years; moderate-intensity continuous training: n=41, mean age 48 years) completed the 9-month exercise training program, during which time the exercise adherence for both groups was 81%. 3 Dall CH, Snoer M, Christensen S, Monk-Hansen T, Frederiksen M, Gustafsson F, Langberg H, Prescott E.
