Nebivolol Versus Bisoprolol Versus Carvedilol in Heart Failure
RandomizedCrossoverSingle-blindTreatment
Summary
The investigators test the hypothesis that different beta-blockers had a different influence on chemoreceptor response and lung diffusion capacity. Both could influence exercise capacity in normoxic as well as hypoxic conditions.
