Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The increase in stroke volume during inotropic stimulation in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is called the "pump function reserve." Few studies have reported on the relationship between pump function reserve and heart failure prognosis. In patients with HFrEF who have pump function reserve, stroke volume would increase during exercise. In other words, the pulse pressure change during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) would be closely related to the prognosis of patients with HFrEF. We hypothesized that pulse pressure change can predict disease severity and prognosis in patients with HFrEF.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

A total of 224 patients with HFrEF who underwent symptom-limited maximal CPX between 2012 and 2016 were enrolled.The endpoint was cardiovascular death. Cardiovascular death was defined as any fatal event related to coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and other heart or vascular diseases, specifically fatal myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, stroke, transient ischemic attack, heart failure, and arrhythmia.The time interval from the date of CPX to cardiovascular death was defined as the duration of follow-up. Endpoints were censored in October 2018.

Key inclusion criteria

Data of patients who underwent symptom-limited maximal CPX between 2012 and 2016 were analyzed. The inclusion criteria were previous or present heart failure symptoms (New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classes II-III, American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) classification stage C), previous documentation of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (left ventricular EF (LVEF) <40%), stable clinical condition with unchanged medications for at least 3 months, ability to perform CPX, and no major cardiovascular treatments or interventions scheduled.

Key exclusion criteria

The exclusion criteria included a history of pulmonary embolism, moderate-to-severe aortic or mitral stenosis, pericardial disease, severe obstructive lung disease, exercise-induced angina and significant electrocardiographic alterations, or the presence of any clinical comorbidity that could interfere with exercising. Based on these criteria, 224 patients with HFrEF were enrolled.
