Novel Estimation of Left Ventricular Filling Pressure Using 3-D Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography: Assessment in a Decompensated Systolic Heart Failure Model
E/e′ allows for the non-invasive estimation of left ventricular (LV) filling pressure; however, Doppler malalignment can make the estimation unreliable, especially in dilated systolic failing hearts. The ratio of peak early diastolic filling rate to peak early diastolic global strain rate (FRe/SRe),...
