Stress Echocardiography-Derived E/e’ Predicts Abnormal Exercise Hemodynamics in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

BackgroundThe correlation between echocardiographic parameters and hemodynamics data in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is unclear. It is important to find a non-invasive echocardiographic parameter for predicting exercise pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP...
