Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
TRAITS-HFpEF is a study that aims to understand why people develop HFpEF, identify new tests and treatments, and gain information on the life expectancy of people living with this condition. It will do this by routinely collecting information on people attending a specialised outpatient HFpEF clinic.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Treatment options in HFpEF are very limited, and several clinical trials have demonstrated neutral results when assessing survival benefit from medical therapy. A common theme for this is the heterogeneity that exists in the HFpEF patient population and non-targeted therapy is inadequate for this diverse population. Patients need to be characterised according to their clinical phenotypes and underlying biological mechanisms in order to provide targeted patient-specific treatment. (Shah et al, 2016)
TRAITS-HFpEF is an observational cohort study that aims to assess the epidemiology, and the association of clinical variables and outcomes of patients with HFpEF. A dedicated specialist HFpEF clinic provides the opportunity to recruit and collect data on a large cohort of patients that can provide insights into different HFpEF phenotypes and their associations and outcomes. This can help direct future research and delivery of specialist care.
All patients attending the HFpEF clinic at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) will be approached. The expectation is to recruit approximately 1,250 patients over a 5-year period. With the patients consent, a blood sample of approximately 10mL will be taken for biobanking to allow measurement of yet to be identified biomarkers, including plasma and DNA. This will be optional for patients. All clinical variables will be documented at the time of the recruitment.
