Brief Summary:
To evaluate the incidence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) and its' prognostic implication in patients who have diagnosed as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) confirmed by HFA-PEFF scoring system without functionally significant coronary artery disease.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction Diagnostic Test: Invasive physiologic evaluation (fractional flow reserve, coronary flow reserve, index of microcirculatory resistance)

Detailed Description:

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome in patients with current or prior symptoms of HF with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50 percent and evidence of cardiac dysfunction as a cause of symptoms (abnormal LV filling and elevated filling pressures). Previous studies have reported that HFpEF is related to various clinical risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, atrial fibrillation, myocardial ischemia with or without significant epicardial coronary artery stenosis, or myocardial infiltrative disease. Although its pathophysiology remains incompletely understood, findings from clinical and pre-clinical studies have suggested systemic endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) could be important pathophysiologic mechanisms for HFpEF.

In this regard, recent studies evaluated non-invasively measured coronary flow reserve (CFR) from positron emission tomography (PET), cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or Doppler echocardiography, and presented the association of depressed global CFR with cardiac diastolic dysfunction and higher risk of clinical events. The presence of CMD can be also evaluated by invasive physiologic assessment using both CFR and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR). Nevertheless, there has been limited study which evaluated the association between HFpEF and CMD using invasive physiologic indices and their prognostic implications, especially in patients without significant coronary artery stenosis. Therefore, we sought to evaluate the incidence of CMD and its' prognostic implication in patients who have diagnosed as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) confirmed by HFA-PEFF scoring system without functionally significant coronary artery disease.

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
Subject with preserved ejection fraction (ejection fraction > 50%) and with dyspnea on exertion (NYHA Grade 2 or more) and diagnosed as HFpEF using HFA-PEFF scoring system (HFA-PEFF ≥5 or 2-4 with abnormal stress test or invasive hemodynamic test)
Diagnostic Test: Invasive physiologic evaluation (fractional flow reserve, coronary flow reserve, index of microcirculatory resistance)
In case of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction confirmed by HFA-PEFF scoring system without functionally significant coronary artery disease, coronary angiography with invasive physiologic evaluation including fractional flow reserve, coronary flow reserve, and index of microcirculatory resistance will be performed to evaluate the distribution and clinical implication of coronary microvascular dysfunction.
