Summary

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a major public health problem that has no proven effective treatment. This study assessed the effects of acute nitrite administration on resting and exercise hemodynamics in patients with HFpEF.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Nitrite

Study drug (NaNO\_2 50 mcg/kg/min) will be infused for 5 minutes during the cardiac catheterization procedure.

DRUG

Saline Placebo for Nitrite

Normal saline placebo will be infused for 5 minutes during the cardiac catheterization procedure. Hemodynamics will then be measured at baseline after study drug infusion and again during low level exercise (20 Watts).
