Summary
The purpose of the study is to find out more about the mechanism by which neural feedback
from the working muscle affects the development of central fatigue during exercise. Subjects
with chronic heart failure (HF) and healthy subject counterparts will be tested to determine
the mechanisms accounting for the premature fatigue characterizing HF patients during
physical activity.
