However, respiratory pressure swings may impact hemodynamic measurements, potentially leading to misdiagnosis of HFpEF. Moreover, threshold values for abnormal hemodynamic response indicative of HFpEF are not universally accepted. Thus, we sought to evaluate the impact of respiratory pressure swings on hemodynamic data interpretation as well as the concordance among 3 proposed exercise hemodynamic criteria for HFpEF: (1) end-expiratory pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP\n              <jats:sub>exp<\/jats:sub>\n              ) \u226525 mm\u2009Hg; (2) PAWP\n              <jats:sub>exp<\/jats:sub>\n              \/cardiac output slope &gt;2 mm\u2009Hg\/L per minute; and (3) respiratory-averaged (avg) mean pulmonary artery pressure &gt;30 mm\u2009Hg, total pulmonary resistance\n              <jats:sub>avg<\/jats:sub>\n              &gt;3 WU, PAWP\n              <jats:sub>avg<\/jats:sub>\n              \u226520 mm\u2009Hg.\n            <\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Fifty-seven patients with unexplained dyspnea (70% women, 70\u00b19 years) underwent exercise cardiac catheterization.
