Brief Summary:
Heart failure (HF) is a chronic disease that has a strong impact on quality of life and is often accompanied by anxiety and depression symptoms that can contribute to poor treatment compliance. The overall management of heart failure is currently part of the recommendations and, alongside drug therapy and electrical devices that can be proposed, lifestyle changes (diet, physical activity) can help improve well-being. and perhaps patient prognosis. Yoga is an ancient practice, known to improve the emotional and physical well-being of individuals. There is no formal medical contraindication to this practice, which can be perfectly adapted to the patient's condition. However, very few patients with heart failure practice yoga. A few randomized trials with small numbers as well as the combined analysis of several studies have shown the benefit of yoga in heart failure. The main objective of the research is to demonstrate the improvement in the quality of life induced by the regular practice of yoga in the management of stabilized chronic heart failure patients. Secondly, we will evaluate the effectiveness of regular yoga practice on improving the clinical condition of chronic heart failure patients.
Detailed Description:
Study design :
Pilot study, prospective, monocentric controlled in open, Randomization ratio 1:1: in two parallel groups
* Arm control workshops around social activities
* Yoga arm (Y): Participation in YOGA classes. There are 4 sessions of 45 minutes (2 face-to-face and 2 remote) per month for 3 months. An attendance sheet will be completed at each session.
Population concerned :
Patients with stabilized chronic heart failure (last episode of acute heart failure dating back more than a month) followed at the Pitié Salpêtrière cardiology institut
The study may be offered to any stabilized heart failure patient followed in the study centre. Visit V1 (D0): Information, Inclusion and randomization Visit V2 (M3): final visit. Between V1 and V2: weekly workshop sessions around storytelling (arm C) or Hatha yoga (Arm Y).
