Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the effects of CO2 inhalation and acetazolamide treatment on exercise-induced periodic breathing in patients with chronic stable heart failure.

Patients will be given CO2 (2%) during a constant workload exercise. Patients will be also evaluated by maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test without and with acetazolamide acute and chronic treatment.
