Abstract
61 year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of acute decompensated heart failure (HF) (clinical scenario classification 1, HFpEF). She was treated with decreasing blood pressure and administrating diuretics. After improved HF, she performed cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). At the time of the first CPET, she was taking 8mg of candesartan and 1.25mg of bisoprolol. The first CPET showed obvious oscillatory ventilation through whole exercise testing. After the first CPET, she stopped taking bisoprolol because it has been thought to deteriorate her HF via increasing diastolic filling pressure due to shortening the duration of diastole.
