Slow breathing increases arterial baroreflex sensitivity in patients with chronic heart failure.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) represents a paradigm shift in the therapeutic options for patients with severe aortic stenosis. However, rapid and exponential growth in TAVR demand may overwhelm capacity, translating to inadequate access and prolonged wait times. Our objective was to evaluate ...
