Doppler Echocardiography
Conditions
Keywords
E/e' ratio, Doppler echocardiography, filling pressure, Left Ventricular end-Diastolic Pressure
Brief summary
The non-invasive estimation of left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVeDP) is a main goal for performing an echocardiography in the routine clinical practice. Conflicting evidence exists about mitral E/e' ratio reliability for predicting high LVeDP
