Comparison of questionnaire and accelerometer-based assessments of physical activity in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: clinical and prognostic implications.

Conclusions. The IPAQ underestimated sedentary time and over-estimated MVPA in HFpEF patients. Using accelerometer-derived data, HFpEF patients spent only a minority of their time involved in MVPA, which was the only PA pattern positively associated with prognostic indicators.
