Details and patient eligibility

About

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

Enrollment: 85 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Age over 18 years
