Description

Aims Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and abnormal non-invasive measures of LV diastolic function are common in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) but their prognostic importance is uncertain. This study aimed to determine whether tissue Doppler measures of LV systolic and/or diastolic function or echocardiographic LV hypertrophy are useful for risk stratifying asymptomatic patients with severe calcific AS. Methods and results One hundred and eighty-three initially asymptomatic patient...
