Popis: Abstract Aims The relationship between accelerometry data and changes in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire‐Physical Limitation Score (KCCQ‐PLS) or 6 min walk test (6MWT) is not well understood. Methods and results VITALITY‐HFpEF accelerometry substudy (n = 69) data were assessed at baseline and 24 weeks. Ordinal logistic regression models were used to assess the association between accelerometry activity and deterioration, improved, or unchanged KCCQ‐PLS (≥8.33 and ≤ −4.17 points) and 6MWT (≥32 vs. ≤ −32 m). KCCQ‐PLS score deteriorated in 16 patients, improved in 34, and was unchanged in 19. 6MWT deteriorated in 8 patients, improved in 21, and was unchanged in 19. Mean accelerometer wear was 21.4 (±2.1) h/day. Changes in hours active from baseline to 24 weeks were not significantly different among patients who exhibited deterioration, improvement, or no change in KCCQ‐PLS [odds ratio (OR) 0.91, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.71–1.18; P = 0.48] or 6MWT (OR 1.21, 95% CI 0.91–1.60; P = 0.18). Similar lack of association was observed for other accelerometry metrics and change in KCCQ and 6MWT. These findings were unaffected when KCCQ and 6MWT were examined as continuous variables. Conclusions Accelerometer‐based activity measures did not correlate with subjective or objective standard measures of health status and functional capacity in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Further investigation of their relationships to clinical outcomes is required.
