Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients with a previous diagnosis of HF-PEF, defined by:
  • At least a previous hospitalization due to heart failure
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥45% by echo during screening epoch, or within 6 months prior to study entry.
  • Symptom(s) of heart failure (HF) and requiring, at least 30 days prior to study entry, hospitalization, or consultation to emergency room .
  • Current symptom(s) of HF
  • Structural heart disease documented by echocardiogram, namely septal or posterior wall thickness \>=1.1 cm) or LA enlargement (i.e., width \>=3.8 cm, length \>=5.0 cm, area \>=20 cm2, volume \>=55 ml, or volume index \>=29 ml/m
  • Elevated NT-proBNP defined as NT-proBNP \>200 pg/ml if the patient had been hospitalized for HF within the past 9 months or \>300 pg/ml if not so.
  • Clinical and hemodynamic stability for at least 4 weeks before study inclusion, defined as stable treatment or functional class for at least 4 weeks before study inclusion, (changes in diuretic dosification are not considered as unstable treatment).

  • Systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 180 mmHg or DBP ≥ 110 mmHg at entry.
  • Patients with severe chronic renal disease, defined as GFR \<15 ml/min or haemodialysis.
  • Inability to understand the study and participate voluntarily
  • Patients diagnosed with cancer in the previous 12 months, and requiring treatment, at the time of study inclusion.
