Effect of Breathing Oxygen-Enriched Air on Exercise Performance in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension Due to Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial

Effect of Breathing Oxygen-Enriched Air on Exercise Performance in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension Due to Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial

Objective: To evaluate the effects of breathing oxygen-enriched air (oxygen) on exercise performance in patients with pulmonary hypertension due to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (PH-HFpEF).Methods: Ten patients with PH-HFpEF (five women, age 60 ± 9 y, mPAP 37 ± 14 mmHg, PAWP 18 ± 2...
