Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is associated with severe morbidtiy and mortality. Yet, little is known about factors leading to the development of HFpEF investigated in a longitudinal fashion. The PREDICT-HFpEF study aims to adress this open question. Patients that were initially included in a large cohort study (LIFE-Heart study) approximately 7-years ago, that underwent thorough clinical, laboratory and echocardiographic assessment, and did not show evidence of heart failure at the present time point will be included in the current study. Patients will be screened for the development of HFpEF or other forms of heart failure (e.g. heart failure with reduced ejection fraction) and will again undergo thorough clinical, laboratory and echocardiographic assessment. Initially measured biomarkers (including clinical data, lab-charts, ECG recordings and echocardiography) will be used to predict the development of HFpEF in this cohort at cardiovascular risk.
