Abstract
HRQoL and exercise capacity increased in both groups over the time-course of the study. After adjusting for relevant variables, HTx patients showed a higher exercise tolerance compared with the LVAD group during follow-up. Thus, future large-scale intervention studies should emphasize the specific needs of these patient cohorts.
