49 Clinical Implications When LVEF is normal in older pts with PH, evaluate LV diastolic function rigorously In elderly pts with multiple clinical risk factors for HFPEF, invasive cath may not be required When diagnostic uncertainty exists, or if pulmonary vasodilator therapy is contemplated, cardiac cath should be considered Pulmonary-specific vasodilators may worsen left heart filling pressures in PH-HFPEF The high prevalence and prognostic impact of PH in HFPEF suggests it may be a therapeutic target, but further study is needed

51 NIH-Sponsored, Chaired by Eugene Braunwald, 7 clinical centers (competitive application) including Duke, Baylor, Harvard, U of Utah, U of Vermont, U of M, Mayo.

52 Summary Diastolic dysfunction, vascular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension all contribute to the pathophysiology of HFPEF, and represent potential therapeutic targets Clinicians should recognize the typical clinical profile of patients with HFPEF, consider cardiac catheterization in cases of uncertainty and await results of ongoing clinical trials
