Key result
Workload-corrected reductions in exercise left atrial reservoir strain are associated with reduced exercise capacity, peak VO2, and an increased risk of worsening heart failure events in patients with HFpEF.

Morello et al. (2024) conducted an editorial in Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Left atrial strain measurement during exercise was evaluated. Workload-corrected reductions in exercise left atrial reservoir strain are associated with reduced exercise capacity, peak VO2, and an increased risk of worsening heart failure events in patients with HFpEF.
