The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the frailty in old patients who have a cardiac disease .
Researchers will determine the improvement in the instability and the strength along twelve sessions based on guided exercises and mobility techniques made by physiotherapists. Research team will also evaluate the medications and diet, as well as laboratory and clinical tests.
Intitial visit to measure quality of life, instability and strenght, followed by twelve sessions, one each week will be performed

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.
Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.

Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) components (balance, gait speed, chair rise)
Improvement in baseline values: each of the three component scores \<= 4 points, and tests consists of: balance test, Gait speed and chair-stand tests. Maximum possible is 12 points and under 10 points means frailty
Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment ending after 12 weeks.
Euroqol5D Goldberg Anxiety and Depression Scale Number of falls throughout the study Major Cardiovascular events Adherence to the program
Euroqol5D measures the Quality of life through an Analogic Visual Scale, which ranks from 0 (worst) to100(best) Goldberg anxiety and depression scales measure the probabilty of suffering from anxiety or depression. The tests consist in a total of 9 questions for each dimension. A score of \>=4 in any of the dimensions suggest pathology. Adherence to the program will be evbaluated counting the attendance to the sessions. More than 9 sessions will be considerated good adherence
Time frame: from the baseline to 12 weeks of intervention
