Heart Failure Clinical Trial
Dapagliflozin (DAPA) Effects in HFpEF
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with Dapagliflozin (DAPA) for 6 months will improve pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) during exercise in heart failure/preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and improve cardiac metabolism.
