The Effect of Carotid Chemoreceptor Inhibition on Exercise Tolerance in Chronic Heart Failure

The Effect of Carotid Chemoreceptor Inhibition on Exercise Tolerance in Chronic Heart Failure

PurposeChronic heart failure (CHF) is characterized by heightened sympathetic nervous activity, carotid chemoreceptor (CC) sensitivity, marked exercise intolerance and an exaggerated ventilatory response to exercise. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of CC inhibition on exercise...
