Efficacy of Treating Anemia in Heart Failure With a Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFPEF) on Ventricular Function, Exercise Capacity and Health Status
The purpose of this study is to determine if treating anemia with subcutaneous erythropoetin in patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) will be associated with reverse ventricular remodeling, significant improvements in exercise capacity, and improved health status, as compared with placebo.
