Nebivolol Versus Bisoprolol Versus Carvedilol in Heart Failure: Effects on Exercise Capacity and Hypoxia, Chemoreceptor Response, Pulmonary Function (CARNEBI)

NCT00517725 Phase 4 COMPLETED

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.
