| Scientific title | A pilot study to assess the effect of beta blockade on exercise capacity and BNP levels in patients with predominantly diastolic heart failure |
| Study objectives | Does the use of beta-blockers in patients with diastolic dysfunction and preserved systolic function result in a significant improvement in quality of life and exercise capacity, a significant reduction in plasma BNP levels, and improved CRP and interleukin levels? |
| Ethics approval(s) | Not provided at time of registration |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Cardiovascular: Heart failure |
| Intervention | 1. Bisoprolol (1.25 mg daily) 2. Placebo |
| Intervention type | Drug |
| Pharmaceutical study type(s) | |
| Phase | Not Specified |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Bisoprolol |
| Primary outcome measure | The change from baseline in plasma BNP measurements |
| Secondary outcome measures | Not provided at time of registration |
| Overall study start date | 01/09/2005 |
| Completion date | 19/12/2006 |
