Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function

Approximately half of patients with a diagnosis of heart failure have a normal left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) without valve disease which is defined as diastolic heart failure (DHF), because it is attributed to LV diastolic dysfunction.[2] Studies examining prevalence of diastolic heart failure in hospitalized patients or in patients undergoing outpatient diag‐ nostic screening an...

Echocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function

J Echocardiogr Vol.6, No.3, 2008 57 The concepts for the assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function were established in the cardiac catheterization laboratory and necessitate the use of high fidelity pressure and conductance catheters. The most recent [1] set of criteria (Figure 1) for diagnosing diastolic heart failure (DHF) include the presence of increased LV filling pressures (m...

Echocardiographic Evaluation of left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation

Extended abstract Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important, leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as well as in renal transplant recipients. Cardiovascular complications become more important in children because of the i...

Doppler echocardiographic indices of left ventricular diastolic function

The influence of age on six Doppler echocardiographic indices of left ventricular diastolic function was assessed in 86 normal volunteers aged from 20 to 74 years (mean 36). Five of the six indices showed a linear relation with age. Duration of isovolumic relaxation and maximal late diastolic (atrial) flow velocity increased significantly with age (r = 0-34 and r = 0-69, respectively). Converse...
