About This Trial
The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effects of a standardized exercise program alone versus the same program combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation in patients undergoing heart failure . The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Assessing the ultrasonographic parameters: echo intensity (echogenicity), cross-sectional area, thickness, and pennation angle…
