Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF): A Clinical Perspective

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is becoming more common as a diagnosis. Once thought as diastolic dysfunction, HFpEF is a unique condition related to elevated pressures in the heart. Dr. Wai Hong Wilson Tang, Dr. Sanjeeb Bhattacharya and Dr. Pavan Bhat from our Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) Clinic discuss this condition, including etiology, diagnostic testing, treatment options, preventive strategies, and how HFpEF Clinic health care providers work together to improve care for patients.
