| Main Objective: 1)the main objective of the study is to evaluate the physical mechanismn, which will caused by giving Crataegus-Extract WS® 1442 to patients having heart failure NYHA II, who are graduating a moderate endurance training. Those physical mechanismn will raise in addition to endurance training the quality of life 2)to identify the parameters, which will captured the physical mechanismn definitely 3)to verify the efficacy of Crataegus-Extract Ws 1442 with regard to life quality, physical potential and parameters, which will capture functions of the cardiopulmonary vascular and muscular systems 4)to evaluate the compatibility;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): quality of life, engaged by the Cansas City Cardioyopathy Questionaire (KCCQ) physical potential in daily life, efficiency tests during maximum of impact as well as every day stresses Efficiency of muscle work cardiac output during impact cardiovascular functions during impact oxygen supply of muscles unexpexted adverse events | — |
