There are similarities in the pathogenesis of cardiac remodelling and dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and coarctation of aorta (COA). We hypothesized that clinical HFpEF would be highly prevalent in adults with COA, and that the presence of HFpEF would increase the risk of mortality in this population. The aim of this study was to define the clinical features, haemodynamics, and prognostic implications of HFpEF in COA.

主动脉缩窄射血分数保留的心力衰竭的临床特征、血流动力学和结局


射血分数保留的心力衰竭（HFpEF）和主动脉缩窄（COA）的心脏重塑和功能障碍的发病机制有相似之处。我们假设临床 HFpEF 在患有 COA 的成人中非常普遍，并且 HFpEF 的存在会增加该人群的死亡风险。本研究的目的是明确 COA 中 HFpEF 的临床特征、血流动力学和预后意义。
