Description

OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the accuracy of Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) measurements in detecting elevated left atrial pressure (LAP) in ambulant subjects with chronic heart failure using directly measured LAP as the reference.BACKGROUND Echocardiographic indexes including the ratio of transmitral to annular early diastolic velocities (E/e') may identify raised invasively measured left ventricular filling pressures when tested in cross-sectional stu...
