Summary

In this study, we will test the feasibility of N-of-1 trials for deprescribing beta-blockers in patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction. To achieve this objective we will conduct 16 4-period N-of-1 trials (on vs. off) and subsequently interview participants to better understand feasibility and pragmatism. The N-of-1 trials will be iteratively refined in real-time based on this feedback.

Beta blockers

The intervention is a two-arm crossover withdrawal/ reversal design (On \[A\] vs Off \[B\]) with up to 4 periods, each period lasting up to 6 weeks. During the On period (A), subjects will be on their beta blocker. During the Off period (B), their beta blockers will be down-titrated and subsequently discontinued. Subjects will be randomized into either ABAB or BABA sequences.
