Renal denervation in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (RDT-PEF): a randomized controlled trial

Effects of renal denervation on vascular remodelling in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction: A randomised control trial

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of renal denervation (RDT) on micro- and macro-vascular function in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). DESIGN A prospective, randomised, open-controlled trial with blinded end-point analysis. SETTING A single-centre London teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS Twenty-five patients with HFpEF who were recruited into the RDT-PEF tr...

Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Symptomatic heart failure, despite preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, is a well-recognized phenomenon. This manifestation of diastolic dysfunction is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and can be attributed to a variety of pathogeneses, including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, infiltrative processes, and obesity. Unlike in systolic heart failure, where LV ejecti...

Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

1. Demonstrate the association between heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and survival. 2. Given a patient with heart failure (HF), recognize HFpEF on the basis of clinical signs and symptoms, physical examination, echocardiography, and radiographic findings. 3. Classify patients at high risk of hospitalization and mortality through assessing risk factors, clinical presentat...
