Congestive heart failure (CHF) is an incurable disease in which the heart fails to pump enough blood to properly supply the body with oxygen and nutrients. In most developed countries, one senior out of every 15 on average suffers from CHF. Moreover, CHF is the most common reason seniors have to visit the hospital. The main symptom of the disease is the inability to be physically active.
