Eligibility Criteria

All

Inclusion Criteria

  • 1.Written informed consent will be obtained prior to any study
  • 2. Age >60 years
  • 3. Clinical risk factors for developing heart failure, either:
  • Coronary artery disease (h/o myocardial infarction, angioplasty or
  • coronary artery bypass)
  • B. At least two of the following:
  • Diabetes Mellitus requiring Hypoglycaemic Pharmacotherapy
  • Receiving pharmacological treatment for Hypertension
  • Microalbuminuria
  • Abnormal ECG (left ventricular hypertrophy, QRS >120msec,
  • abnormal Q-waves)
  • 4. Biological risk: NT-pro-BNP values between 125 and 1,000 ng/L or
  • BNP values between 35 and 280 pg/ml (consistent with ESC guidelines
  • indicating risk of HF but helping to rule out prevalent HF or atrial
  • fibrillation which are associated with marked increases in NTproBNP/
  • BNP and should be investigated)
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 160
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 640

Exclusion Criteria

  • 1. Recent wound healing/inflammation:
  • Surgical procedure, coronary, cerebral or peripheral vascular events
  • or infection in the prior 3 months
  • Autoimmune disease
  • Hepatic Disease
  • 2. Pre-existing diagnosis of clinical HF
  • 3. Moderate/severe LV systolic ventricular dysfunction, i.e. LVEF <45%
  • 4. Moderate or severe valve disease (investigators opinion)
  • 5. eGFR< 30ml/min
  • 6. Serum potassium >5.0 mmol/L
  • 7. Treatment with an MRA or a loop diuretic (furosemide, bumetanide,
  • ethacrynic acid or torasemide) in the previous three months
  • 8. Potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretic at time of
  • 9. Atrial fibrillation within one month prior to inclusion (AF lasting <60
  • seconds on ambulatory ECG monitoring is permitted)
  • 10. History of hypersensitivity to spironolactone.
  • 11. Patients unable to give written informed consent.
  • 12. Participation in another interventional trial in the preceding month
  • 13. Ability to walk is, in the investigators opinion, clearly limited by
  • joint disease or other locomotor problems rather than by
  • cardiorespiratory fitness
