Brief Summary:
Prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to increase in the developed world, likely because of the increasing life expectancy and an increasing number of elderly patients.
Transthoracic echocardiography is essential for the diagnosis of HFpEF according to the current guidelines. The HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF diagnostic algorithms rely on clinical characteristics and echocardiography findings that indicate the presence of diastolic dysfunction.
These diagnostic algorithms are not applicable in remote areas where expert echocardiography cannot be performed due to the absence of modern ultrasound systems and lack of qualified specialists. Therefore, it is important to develop an algorithm to evaluate pre-test probability of HFpEF without echocardiographic markers, so it can be easily used in the primary outpatient care setting by any specialist.
The aim of this study is to find the associations between clinical and epidemiological characteristics and changes of intracardiac hemodynamics in patients with dyspnea and decreased exercise tolerance.
