The main questions it aims to answer are:\n\n* What are the effects of increasing dosages of dobutamine infusion on cardiac output and filling pressures in patients with symptomatic ATTRwt.\n* Safety of dobutamine infusion in this patient population.\n\nParticipants will be given increasing dosages of dobutamine infusion, and its effect on cardiac output and filling pressures will be assessed non-invasively by echocardiography, and invasively by right heart catheterization, simultaneously.', 'detailedDescription': 'AIMS\n\n* To investigate the hemodynamic effects of increasing dosages of dobutamine infusion on cardiac output and filling pressures in patients with symptomatic ATTRwt, assessed simultaneously by right heart catheterization (RHC) and echocardiography.\n* To assess the safety of dobutamine infusion in ATTRwt patients.\n\nHYPOTHESIS\n\n* Dobutamine infusion can increase myocardial contractility in patients with symptomatic ATTRwt with an increase of CO by 10%.\n* The left ventricular filling pressure as expressed by the pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) and/or mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) will decrease by ≥ 10% during increasing dobutamine dosages.\n* Dobutamine is well-tolerated and safe to use in symptomatic ATTRwt patients.\n\nMATERIALS AND METHODS\n\nStudy population Symptomatic participants with ATTRwt, age ≥ 65 years, who have reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and/or stroke volume index (SVI), without significant valvular diseases or severe coronary artery diseases.\n\nStudy design\n\nEligible patients will be assessed in the trial day (one day) as following:\n\nStep1; Baseline assessment: Blood pressure, pulse and ECG will be obtained. All participants will also undergo a comprehensive resting transthoracic echocardiographic assessment according to current guidelines.\n\nStep 2; Invasive right heart catheterization (RHC): The subjects will be instructed not to eat for 6 hours and not to drink for 2 hours before the procedure. RHC will be performed in the cardiac invasive laboratory using right internal jugular vein access. Rarely, right femoral vein access will be used, if the right internal jugular vein is difficult to canulate, as a result of anatomical anomalies or local skin or muscle deformities. A 7 Fr sheath will be inserted in the vein aseptic, and ultrasound guided in local anaesthesia. Subsequently, a pulmonary catheter (Swan-Ganz) will be advanced through the sheath guided by pressure waves and fluoroscopy, through the right atrium, the right ventricle, and ultimately in a stable position in the pulmonary artery (PA). The standard Swan-Ganz catheter is equipped with an inflatable balloon at the tip, which facilitates its placement into the PA through the flow of blood. The balloon, when inflated, causes the catheter to "wedge" in a small pulmonary blood vessel. While wedged, the catheter can provide an indirect measurement of the mean left atrium pressure. Central oxygenation of the blood (SvO2) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) will be assessed from blood taken from the pulmonary artery at rest and at peak dobutamine infusion according to the protocol.\n\nThe PA catheter location will be confirmed with fluoroscopy before leaving the laboratory and both the sheath and the catheter will be fixed to the skin.\n\nRHC is performed using a standard 7 Fr triple lumen Swan-Ganz catheter (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California, USA).\n\nThe following parameters will be measured by RHC:\n\n* PAWP\n* Mean right atrial pressure\n* Systolic and diastolic PA pressure\n* mPAP\n* CO All pressures at rest are measured at end-expiration as the average of five measurements. CO is measured using thermodilution methods as the average of at least four measurements not differing more than 10% and indexed to body surface area as the Cardiac Index (CI). SV is calculated as CO divided by heart rate.\n\nStep 3; Dobutamine challenge:\n\nStep 4; Recovery period: The pulmonary catheter and sheath will be removed after a-5-minute recovery period, right after obtaining the final images and invasive measurements. The participants will be observed for 2 hours after the end of the test and will be discharged if no complications arise. Blood sample will be taken to measure NT-proBNP after 1-2 hours after the end of dobutamine challenge.\n\nThe investigators expect the study will last for about 6-7 hours, including preparations, waiting time, the procedures themselves and the observation period.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '65 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
