Mechanisms of Aortic Flow Deceleration and the Effect of Wave Reflection on Left Ventricular Function
Increased wave reflection is an independent predictor of cardiovascular events, possibly due to effects on left ventricular (LV) function. We investigated the relationship between reflected waves in early systole, the forward decompression wave in mid-late systole and LV mechanical behavior. Invasiv...
