The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic value of cardiopulmonary testing (CPET) in a cohort of patients with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA). ATTR-CA is associated with a progressive reduction in functional capacity. The prognostic role of CPET parameters and in particular of normalized peak VO2 (%ppVO2) remains to be thoroughly evaluated. In this study, 75 patients with ATTR-CA underwent cardiological evaluation and CPET in a National Referral Center for cardiac amyloidosis (Careggi University Hospital, Florence). Fifty-seven patients (76%) had wild-type ATTR. Median age was 80 (75-83) years, 68 patients (91%) were men. Peak oxygen consumption (14.1 ± 4.1 ml/kg/min) and %ppVO |
