Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) before and during exercise is the current gold standard for diagnosing HFpEF. Post-exercise ΔPCWP can lead to worse long-term outcomes. This study examined the correlation between LA strain and post-exercise ΔPCWP in patients with HFpEF.enEchocardiography; Exercise stress test; Hemodynamics; Pulmonary wedge pressurePost-exercise left atrial conduit strain predicted hemodynamic change in heart failure with preserved ejection fractionjournal article10.1007/s00330-023-10142-z376509702-s2.0-85169166290
