No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with an intermediate risk (HFA-PEFF score 2-4 points) for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) will be further investigated with invasive right heart catheterization. All patients with a resting pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) \<15mmHg will undergo the following stress test modalities in a randomized order: (1) bicycle ergometry, (2) dynamic handgrip exercise, (3) 500ml fluid challenge over 5 minutes, (4) leg raise testing. Exercise induced HFpEF will be diagnosed if PAWP rises to \>25mmHg.
