Does 1 year of exercise training reduce LV myocardial stiffness in patients with stage B heart failure with preserved ejection fraction?
One year of exercise training reduces LV myocardial stiffness in patients with stage B HFpEF, potentially offering protection against progression to symptomatic heart failure.
In patients with LV hypertrophy and elevated cardiac biomarkers (stage B heart failure with preserved ejection fraction), 1 year of exercise training reduced LV myocardial stiffness. Thus, exercise training may provide protection against the future risk of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in such patients.
