Coronary flow reserve as a link between diastolic and systolic function and exercise capacity in heart failure

In heart failure, a reduced exercise capacity is the prevailing symptom and an important prognostic marker of future outcome. The purpose of the study was to assess the relation of coronary flow reserve (CFR) to diastolic and systolic function in heart failure and to determine which are the limiting...

Zusammenfassung:In heart failure, a reduced exercise capacity is the prevailing symptom and an important prognostic marker of future outcome. The purpose of the study was to assess the relation of coronary flow reserve (CFR) to diastolic and systolic function in heart failure and to determine which are the limiting factors for exercise capacity. Forty-seven patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)
