Summary

This study looks at whether a pacemaker can improve exercise ability and quality of life in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who also have a small heart chamber and a low heart rate during activity. Thirty participants will receive a pacemaker and be randomly assigned to have it turned on or off for three months, then switch. The main goal is to see if pacing increases peak oxygen uptake, a measure of fitness.
