NCT03050593

Brief Summary

The investigators wish to test a hypothesis that patients with HFpEF have different characteristics on echo, cardiac MRI and plasma protein \& chemical profiles compared to HFrEF and healthy volunteers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The composite end-point of all-cause mortality or repeat hospitalisation with heart failure

    Minimum 6 month follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • The number of new clinical diagnoses detected by cardiac MRI

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Exercise capacity as assessed by the six-minute walk test

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Quality of life assessed by the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Study Arms (3)

HFpEF group

clinical or radiographic evidence of heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction \> 50% on transthoracic echocardiography

Diagnostic Test: MRI scan, Echo scan

HFrEF group

Clinical or radiographic evidence of heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction \< 40% on transthoracic echocardiography

Diagnostic Test: MRI scan, Echo scan

Healthy control group

Asymptomatic controls (age and sex-matched) without known heart disease

Diagnostic Test: MRI scan, Echo scan

Interventions

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Subjects with heart failure from Hospital (including ward patients and out-patients clinic)

You may qualify if:

  • Clinical features of heart failure or prior radiographic evidence in the absence of symptoms And Either ejection fraction \> 50% (for HFpEF arm) or ejection fraction \< 40% (for HFrEF arm)

You may not qualify if:

  • Myocardial infarction within the preceding 6 months
  • Suspected or confirmed cardiomyopathy (e.g. hypertrophic, infiltrative)
  • Suspected or confirmed constrictive pericarditis
  • Significant native valve disease (≥ moderate severity)
  • Known Significant lung disease (documented or FEV1\< 30% or FVC \< 50%)
  • Non-cardiovascular co-morbidity likely to cause death within 6 months (e.g. malignancy)
  • Significant renal failure (estimated GFR \< 30 ml/min/m2)
  • Patient inability to provide informed consent (e.g. dementia)
