Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: -Symptomatic patients more than 18 years with Stage C HFpEF (LVEF greater than 50%) and chronotropic incompetence on optimized guideline indicated HF medical therapy -NYHA more than Class 2 and an elevated N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level higher than 300 pg/ml -Partial or complete inter-atrial block (IAB) on ECG. -IAB will be defined as a maximum P wave duration greater than 120ms. Partial IAB will be defined as a P wave greater than 120ms with notching in leads II, III, or aVF. A P wave duration greater than 120ms and a biphasic morphology in leads II, III, aVF will be classified as advanced or complete IAB. -Baseline PR interval less than 200ms -Baseline HR less than 60/min or an average heart rate on baseline holter that is less than 65/min

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Persistent atrial fibrillation -History of corrected or uncorrected congenital heart disease -Severe mitral valve disease -Previous mitral surgery - Indication for Ventricular pacing -Pregnancy -Stage IV/V Chronic Kidney Disease -Multiple comorbidities with an estimated life expectancy more than 1 year -Patients unable to give written or informed consent

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Relative Change in N-proBNP compared with baselineTimepoint: 4 weeks 8 weeks 12 weeks and 24 weeks (derived from the study duration of 24 months with key intervals likely aligned with the washout period and follow-up phases)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) Diastolic function assessment by echocardiography 2) HF Hospitalizations 3) Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire 4) NYHA functional class, 5) 6WMD 6) atrial arrhythmia burden 7) daily diuretic requirement.Timepoint: 4 weeks 8 weeks 12 weeks & 24 weeks (derived from the study duration of 24 months with key intervals likely aligned with the washout period & follow-up phases).
