Patients with unexplained dyspnoea on exertion represent a diagnostically challenging population. Reliance on cardiopulmonary diagnostic testing solely performed at rest poses significant risk of overlooking physiologic abnormalities unmasked by exercise. Exercise invasive haemodynamic measurements have emerged as an important modality for assessment and differentiation of cardiac versus non-cardiac dyspnoea and their value is increasingly recognized by guidelines and major consensus documents. 1–3 In the current issue of the Journal, Omote et al. 4 expand the knowledge base underlying the importance of pulmonary arterial catheter-based haemodynamic measurements in the evaluation of suspected heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The authors investigated whether abnormal invasive haemodynamic parameters derived during clinically-indicated supine cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) predict heart failure-related hospitalizations or death. This retrospective analysis of 764 patients with unexplained dyspnoea included three groups:(i) patients with haemodynamic evidence of HFpEF at rest based on pulmonary arterial wedge pressure≥ 15 mmHg (rPAWP≥ 15, n= 384);(ii) patients with haemodynamic evidence of HFpEF defined by a supine peak exercise PAWP≥ 25mmHg (exPAWP≥ 25, n= 187); and (iii) patients with ‘non-cardiac dyspnoea’(NCD) based on not only having rPAWP< 15mmHg and exPAWP< 25 mmHg but also having resting mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP)< 20mmHg as well as pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR)< 3 Wood units (WU) at rest and mean PAP≤ 30mmHg or PVR< 3 WU with exercise. This grouping clusters those with abnormal pre-capillary pulmonary haemodynamics exclusively with the two elevated PAWP groups, arguably enriching for adverse outcomes in comparison to the NCD group.
