简要总结
The goal of this study is to define how treatment of obesity impacts cardiometabolic performance during exercise in patients with established HFpEF or at risk for HFpEF. Multi-dimensional physical activity, including 6 minute walk distance, resting metabolic rate, the metabolic cost of initiating exercise, and low-level, intermediate, peak exercise, and recovery oxygen utilization patterns will be examined in relation to weight loss in people having bariatric surgery. The investigators also aim to learn more about the relationship between obesity, exercise intolerance, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The investigators are interested in the extent to which HFpEF's manifestations are preventable or reversible with weight-loss interventions. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- How does weight loss surgery affect comprehensive measures of physical activity?
- What are the biochemical signatures of obesity and their reversibility in patients with HFpEF and obesity?
详细描述
A prospective evaluation of subjects with HFpEF or at risk for HFpEF undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy surgery to determine cardiometabolic responses to exercise.
The investigators will prospectively evaluate twenty-one patients to determine cardiometabolic responses to exercise before and 12-months after bariatric surgery. The investigators will map pulmonary/pulmonary vascular function, ventilatory efficiency (VE/VCO2 slope); left ventricular-systemic vascular function (based on echo measures) as well as exercise blood pressure responses (SBP at 30 Watts); sympathetic nervous system function during exercise will be assessed by heart rate-O2 pulse relationships; peripheral abnormalities characteristic of HFpEF will be measured by assessment of O2 kinetics during exercise onset and recovery. Additionally, global metabolic reserve will be captured by assessment of peak VO2. The comprehensive evaluation of these patients pre- and post-weight loss will further elucidate relationships between HFpEF and obesity, and their plasticity in response to weight loss, while also setting the stage to evaluate clinical trial endpoints that influence how patients function and feel (e.g. CPET-derived exercise capacity). The investigators will also assess exercise capacity and additional markers of metabolic health.

研究组 & 干预措施
Weight Loss Procedure
Each subject will undergo laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, as part of their clinical care. This is a single-arm study, in which the investigators collect data prior to the procedure, 3 months after the procedure, and 12 months after the procedure.
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Peak VO2
时间窗: baseline to month 12
To precisely quantify changes in peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2) achieved pre and post gastric sleeve surgery by performing cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) at baseline (pre-surgery) and 12-months post-procedure (+/- 3 months). CPETs will be performed on a cycle ergometer.
