In patients with heart failure, carvedilol ameliorated cardiac function, but it did not affect oxygen uptake, kinetics, and ventilatory efficiency during 6-minute exercise at a constant 50-W workload. Persistence of respiratory incompetence may prevent improvement in submaximal oxygen uptake kinetics.
