Ratio of Transmitral E Wave Velocity to Left Atrial Strain as a Useful Predictor of Total and Cardiovascular Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients

Ratio of Transmitral E Wave Velocity to Left Atrial Strain as a Useful Predictor of Total and Cardiovascular Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients

The ratio of transmitral E-wave velocity (E) to a left ventricular diastolic parameter is reported to be well correlated with left ventricular filling pressure and is useful in the prediction of mortality. Left atrial (LA) strain has been demonstrated to be associated with left ventricular diastolic...
