Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the potential of heart rate (HR) recovery after exercise as a predictor of functional improvement in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing aortic valve surgery (TAVI).
- - Conducting a 6-minute walk test (6MWT) before and three months after TAVI on 93 patients showed that the change in walking distance can be linked to HR recovery patterns.
- - The findings indicate that measuring HR recovery, especially after 2 minutes, could effectively assess exercise capacity improvements post-surgery and help identify patients who may not benefit significantly from the procedure.
