Objective: The present study aims to estimate the prevalence of heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF) in patients with HF. The study also compares their clinical characteristics with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction among Saudi out patients.   Methods: A Cross sectional, observational study was conducted by recruiting heart failure patients, who had an echocardiography within one year and the left ventricular ejection fraction &gt;45%. The case report forms monitored for source documentation and accuracy.  Results: The population sample included 26% women; with mean age 58 ±10 years (range 32 to 82). Of these patients, 66 did not have an EF measurement. Of the 330 patients with EF values, 168 had an EF of &gt;45% and were classified as having HF-PEF and 162 had an EF &lt; 45% and were classified as having HF-REF. Calcium channel blocker, thiazides diuretic and ARBs were more frequently used in HF-PEF.   Conclusion: The study concluded that there is a need to develop safe and cost-effective methods for screening high-risk patients with multiple risk factors for the early detection and treatment of heart failure.
