Assessment of LV Diastolic Function by Echo in SR and AF

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Though there are several parameters for evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function by echocardiography, the most commonly used are the pulsed Doppler mitral E/A ratio and tissue Doppler mitral E/e’ ratio. Doppler interrogation of mitral valve is usually done from the apex through the apical four chamber view.

Right ventricular dysfunction and impaired right ventricular–pulmonary arterial coupling in paradoxical low‐flow, low‐gradient aortic stenosis

European Journal of Heart Failure

AF, atrial fibrillation; LAVI, left atrial volume index; RA, right atrial; RV, right ventricular; sPAP, systolic pulmonary artery pressure; SVI, stroke volume index; TR, tricuspid regurgitation. In addition, the TAPSE/systolic pulmonary artery pressure ratio (TAPSE/sPAP) was monitored as a measure of RVpulmonary arterial (PA) coupling.
