The Right

The main clinical manifestation of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is poor exercise tolerance. In addi-tion to the dysfunction of the left heart chambers, which were presented in the first part of this review, many other disorders are involved in poor exercise tolerance in such patients: impairments of the right heart, vascular system and skeletal muscle. The second part of this review presents the mechanisms for the development of these disorders, as well as possible ways to correct them.
