Testing nerve reactions in heart failure with stiff heart muscle
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how the body's nervous system responds to changes in oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in people with a type of heart failure called HFpEF. It may help researchers understand why symptoms occur and how to better treat them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and symptoms like shortness of breath or fatigue
- You have stiff heart muscle with signs of high blood pressure in the lungs
- You are a healthy volunteer with no known heart or lung problems
- You are not breastfeeding and not able to become pregnant

This trial uses special tests to see if you have a type of heart failure where the heart pumps well but doesn't relax properly (HFpEF). It's for people who feel short of breath but haven't been diagnosed with this condition yet.
This study is for people with a type of heart failure called HFpEF, where the heart pumps normally but doesn't relax well. It aims to better understand heart failure through advanced testing, and it includes people who are newly diagnosed or have had a recent hospitalization.
This study looks at how the heart muscle works in people with a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but doesn't fill properly. It aims to understand the cause better, which could lead to new treatments.
This Phase 2 study tests how matching heart “filling pressure” and heart muscle “energy use” may improve understanding or treatment of HFpEF, a type of heart failure with preserved pumping strength. You may be asked to have heart scans/tests and follow a study plan if your symptoms and test results fit.
This study looks at a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but is too stiff to fill properly. It aims to better understand and classify this condition, which may help guide future treatments.
This study uses a special ultrasound technique to check how stiff the heart muscle is in people with heart failure who have a normal pumping ability (HFpEF). It aims to better understand heart stiffness to help diagnose and manage this condition.
