Clinical Trial Summary

Heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Hypertension remains one of the major modifiable risk factors in HFpEF development and progression. The role of aerobic exercise training for blood pressure (BP) reduction is well established, with positive cardiac, vascular, and neurohumoral adaptations all cited as potential mechanisms for improving arterial haemodynamics. However, recent evidence has shown that a specific type of resistance exercise alone, known as isometric exercise (IE), produces greater mean BP reductions than what has traditionally been seen with both aerobic and dynamic resistance exercise training programmes. Indeed, short duration IE training causes significant improvements in both cardiac structure and function, in addition to inducing significant reductions in resting BP in normotensive, pre-hypertensive and hypertensive individuals. This study aims to compare the acute and chronic effects of an IE training intervention on diastolic function parameters in patients who have been diagnosed with HFpEF compared to a control group.
