Exercise capacity assessed with the one-minute sit-to-stand test (1-min STST) and echocardiographic findings in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)

Abstract

Our study shows potential usefulness of the 1-min STST as an evaluative tool for exercise capacity in HFpEF patients, because patients with worse 1-min STST performance have worse clinical parameters and QoL.
