“…In previous studies [30,33], the ratio between transmitral early diastolic velocity determined by conventional Doppler echocardiography and early diastolic mitral annular velocity assessed by TDI have been shown to be a reliable index for LV filling pressure. In our study, according to this formula, LV filling pressure was computed.…”

“…The use of E/e′ ratio estimates of LV fi lling pressure has been demonstrated in several populations, including patients with preserved ejection fraction [20•], impaired ejection fraction [17,18], sinus tachycardia [22], heart transplantation [23], and atrial fi brillation [24]. Nevertheless, several recent confl icting studies have questioned the robustness of the E/e′ ratio in estimating fi lling pressures in the setting of acutely decompensated patients with advanced systolic heart failure, particularly in patients with large ventricular volumes, severely impaired cardiac output, with cardiac resynchronization therapy [25•], and in symptomatic patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (New York Heart Association class III or IV) [26•].…”

The evaluation of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function is an essential component of the echocardiographic examination for dyspneic patients with impaired or preserved LV systolic function. Doppler echocardiography in combination with two-dimensional echocardiographic findings can assist the diagnosis of underlying cardiac dysfunction, give an estimate of LV filling pressures, guide heart failure treatment, and provide important prognostic information. This article reviews the essentials of modern Doppler assessment of diastolic function and highlights recent updates, areas of controversy, and future applications.

“…In addition, transmitral flow velocities and other Doppler variables are used as noninvasive estimates of intracardiac filling pressures, despite having some limitations. Indeed, the ratio of early transmitral velocity to tissue Doppler mitral annular early diastolic velocity (E/E 0 ) has been used to estimate PCWP in a wide range of cardiac patients [3][4][5][6][7]. However, the results of previous studies into the relationship between mitral E/E 0 and PCWP are contentious.…”

Accurate assessment of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) is essential for physicians to effectively manage patients with acute decompensated heart failure. The ratio of early transmittal velocity to tissue Doppler mitral annular early diastolic velocity (E/E') is used to estimate PCWP noninvasively in a wide range of cardiac patients. However, it remains contentious as to whether mitral E/E' is a reliable predictor of PCWP. In the present study, acute heart failure patients were divided into two groups on the basis of left ventricular (LV) systolic function: those with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and those with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The usefulness of mitral E/E' in estimating PCWP was compared between the two groups. Fifty consecutive patients who were admitted with acute decompensated heart failure and underwent both right-sided cardiac catheterization and transthoracic echocardiography during hospitalization were analyzed retrospectively. Pearson's correlation was used to evaluate associations between Doppler parameters and PCWP. E/E' was positively correlated with PCWP (r = 0.56, P = 0.01) in the heart failure with preserved ejection fraction group. However, no significant relationship was observed between PCWP and mitral E/E' (P = 0.85) in the heart failure with reduced ejection fraction group. There were no significant correlations between any of the conventional parameters considered (LVEF, left atrial dimension, E/A, IVRT, and DT) with PCWP in either group. In conclusion, mitral E/E' is useful for estimating PCWP in patients with acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction but may not in those with reduced ejection fraction.
