Abstract

AIM To evaluate the value of Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging(DTI)in assessing left ventricular diastolic pressure.METHODS Seventy-nine patients were divided into three groups:the normal group,the impaired relaxation group and the pseudonormal group.The transmitral flow velocity,mitral annular motion velocity and pulmonary venous flow velocity were measured.RESUTTS The E/e ratio was related well to the mean left ventricular diastolic pressure(mLVDP).CONCLUSION The E/e ratio is of high valuable in estimating the elevated mLVDP.
