Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The neuropsychological test battery applied at pretest and posttest includes measures of episodic memory, working memory, short-term memory, executive functions, perceptual speed and intelligence. In addition, the investigators apply standardized questionnaires of self-assessed quality of life, cognitive functioning in daily life, selfcare, and psychological well-being (depression, anxiety and personality). Relevant physiological data such as ejection fraction, heartrate, N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) as well as drug blood level are recorded.
