Beta-blocker Discontinuation in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF-BB)

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This is a prospective pilot study to evaluate changes before and 4 weeks after beta-blocker withdrawal in 30 HFpEF patients.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Other: beta blocker discontinuation Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
This is a prospective pilot study to evaluate changes before and 4 weeks(+/- 1 week) after beta-blocker withdrawal in 30 HFpEF patients. The study involves 2 visits that are 4 weeks apart. The first study visit will occur at a standard of care clinic visit and the second visit will be a research visit to fill out questionnaires and perform the limited echocardiogram. No long term follow up beyond the 2nd visit.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Changes in KCCQ-23 score [ Time Frame: Baseline and after 4 weeks of beta blocker discontinuation ]
    Kansa city cardiomyopathy questionnaire (KCCQ-23)- self-administered, 23-item. questionnaire that quantifies physical limitations, symptoms, self-efficacy, social interference and quality of life. Scores are transformed to a range of 0-100, where higher scores reflect better health status.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Changes in cardiac mechanics by echocardiography [ Time Frame: Baseline and after 4 weeks of beta blocker discontinuation ]
    Echocardiographic E/e' ratio

  2. Changes in biomarker [ Time Frame: Baseline and after 4 weeks of beta blocker discontinuation ]
    changes from baseline in BNP level (pg/mL) after 4 weeks of beta blocker discontinuation

  3. 6 minute walk test [ Time Frame: Baseline and after 4 weeks of beta blocker discontinuation ]
    The distance (meters) covered over a time of 6 minutes. A greater distance indicates a better exercise capacity.
