Influence of locomotor muscle group III/IV afferents on cardiovascular and ventilatory responses in human heart failure during submaximal exercise

Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: Patients with HFrEF exhibit severe exercise intolerance. One of the primary peripheral mechanisms contributing to exercise intolerance in patients with HFrEF is locomotor muscle group III/IV afferent feedback. However, it is unknown whether these afferents impact the central and peripheral responses during submaximal cycling exercise. Herein, we demonstrate that inhibition of locomotor muscle group III/IV afferent feedback elicited increases in stroke volume during submaximal exercise in HFrEF, but not in healthy controls.
