Reclassification of patients into likelihood categories (low, intermediate and high) from the H2FPEF to the HFA‐PEFF score (A) and vice versa (B). White = low likelihood; light‐grey = intermediate likelihood; dark‐grey = high likelihood of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, estimated by each designated score.
