Putative mechanisms responsible for the exercise intolerance and early fatigue induced by type III/IV afferent feedback in chronic heart failure. Abnormal central haemodynamics initiate a cascade which ultimately results in an increase in III/IV afferent feedback activity. It is to be emphasised that physical training may potentially counteract this malfunctioning at various levels, while, to date, no pharmacological intervention has been demonstrated to be able to correct this abnormal regulation.
