This work package of the study will use phenotyping and one-year follow-up of a community recruited cohort of patients with HFpEF or probable HFpEF to understand the characteristics and needs of this patient group. It involves a longitudinal cohort study conducted to identify patients with HFpEF in primary care and assess comorbidities, lifestyle factors, frailty, self-management, symptoms, quality of life, cognitive function, types of care received, management of risk factors and comorbidities, and one year morbidity and mortality. This will inform particular areas for assessment and management/self-management in the optimised programme. The investigators will also apply to NHS Digital who are the data controllers of Hospital Episode Statistics to check if participants have had any hospitals visits throughout the duration of the study.
