E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To define mechanisms for effect of Aldosterone antagonism in the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. |
|

|
E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Serial change in ECV, as calculated by T1 map using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging following treatment with an aldosterone antagonist. |

The study will be conducted over 6 months. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
To determine the effect of spironolactone in HF-PEF on: Alternative methods of measuring ECV with CMR Echocardiographically & CMR derived measures of cardiac relaxation Establish correlation betwen change in ECV and measures of cardiac relaxation Exercise tolerance & quality of life |
