Prediction of all-cause mortality after liver transplantation using left ventricular systolic and diastolic function assessment.

Although pretransplant cardiac dysfunction is considered a major predictor of poor outcomes after liver transplantation (LT), the ability of left ventricular (LV) systolic/diastolic function (LVSF/LVDF), together or individually, to predict mortality after LT is poorly characterized. We retrospectiv...
