U.S., Feb. 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07394010) titled 'Role of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in People With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction' on Jan. 21.

Up to half of these patients have apparently normal heart pumping function, known as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Because HFpEF typically occurs in elderly patients with multiple comorbidities, many different mechanisms could drive symptoms and life expectancy, and it has been difficult to find effective treatments that work for all.
