Résumé
Right heart catheterization using exercise stress is the reference standard for the diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) but carries the risk of the invasive procedure. We hypothesized that real-time cardiac magnetic resonance (RT-CMR) exercise imaging with pathophysiologic data at excellent temporal and spatial resolution may represent a contemporary noninvasive alternative for diagnosing HFpEF. The HFpEF-Stress trial (CMR Exercise Stress Testing in HFpEF; URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT03260621. URL: https://dzhk.de/; Unique identifier: DZHK-17) prospectively recruited 75 patients with echocardiographic signs of diastolic dysfunction and dyspnea on exertion (E/e'>8, New York Heart Association class ≥II) to undergo echocardiography, right heart catheterization, and RT-CMR at rest and during exercise stress. HFpEF was defined according to pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (≥15 mm Hg at rest or ≥25 mm Hg during exercise stress). RT-CMR functional assessments included time-volume curves for total and early (1/3) diastolic left ventricular filling, left atrial (LA) emptying, and left ventricular/LA long axis strain. Patients with HFpEF (n=34; median pulmonary capillary wedge pressure at rest, 13 mm Hg; at stress, 27 mm Hg) had higher E/e' (12.5 versus 9.15), NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide; 255 versus 75 ng/L), and LA volume index (43.8 versus 36.2 mL/m RT-CMR allows highly accurate identification of HFpEF during physiologic exercise and qualifies as a suitable noninvasive diagnostic alternative.

BACKGROUND
Right heart catheterization using exercise stress is the reference standard for the diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) but carries the risk of the invasive procedure. We hypothesized that real-time cardiac magnetic resonance (RT-CMR) exercise imaging with pathophysiologic data at excellent temporal and spatial resolution may represent a contemporary noninvasive alternative for diagnosing HFpEF.
METHODS
The HFpEF-Stress trial (CMR Exercise Stress Testing in HFpEF; URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT03260621. URL: https://dzhk.de/; Unique identifier: DZHK-17) prospectively recruited 75 patients with echocardiographic signs of diastolic dysfunction and dyspnea on exertion (E/e'>8, New York Heart Association class ≥II) to undergo echocardiography, right heart catheterization, and RT-CMR at rest and during exercise stress. HFpEF was defined according to pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (≥15 mm Hg at rest or ≥25 mm Hg during exercise stress). RT-CMR functional assessments included time-volume curves for total and early (1/3) diastolic left ventricular filling, left atrial (LA) emptying, and left ventricular/LA long axis strain.
RESULTS
Patients with HFpEF (n=34; median pulmonary capillary wedge pressure at rest, 13 mm Hg; at stress, 27 mm Hg) had higher E/e' (12.5 versus 9.15), NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide; 255 versus 75 ng/L), and LA volume index (43.8 versus 36.2 mL/m
CONCLUSIONS
RT-CMR allows highly accurate identification of HFpEF during physiologic exercise and qualifies as a suitable noninvasive diagnostic alternative. These results will need to be confirmed in multicenter prospective research studies to establish widespread routine clinical use.
