Researchers aim to study the underlying pathophysiology of diastolic heart failure

Of the estimated five million patients in the U.S. diagnosed with heart failure annually, nearly half will have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Also known as diastolic heart failure, HFpEF occurs when the heart's lower left chamber loses its ability to relax and fill up with enough blood in between in each heartbeat.
