Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) commonly experience exercise intolerance, resulting in reduced cardiorespiratory fitness. This is characterised by a decreased maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O ), which is determined by the product of cardiac output (CO) and arteriovenou...
