Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of heart rate and PR interval on Doppler indexes of left ventricular diastolic filling in an elderly cohort (the Framingham Heart Study)
Maurizio Galderisi,Emelia J. Benjamin,Jane C. Evans,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Deborah L. Fuller,Brigitta Lehman,Daniel Levy +6 more
TL;DR: Heart rate was a major determinant of all 5 Doppler indexes of diastolic filling; heart rate was inversely associated with peak velocity E, E, and time velocity integral E/A, and was directly associated withpeak velocity A and atrial filling fraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intra- and interobserver reproducibility of Doppler-assessed indexes of left ventricular diastolic function in a population-based study (the Framingham Heart Study).
Maurizio Galderisi,Emelia J. Benjamin,Jane C. Evans,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Deborah L. Fuller,Brigitta Lehman,Philip A. Wolf,Daniel Levy +7 more
TL;DR: Although the interobserver bias was statistically significant for most of the parameters, it was < 10% for all but 1 parameter, and in subjects in sinus rhythm, the reproducibility of left ventricular inflow was significantly lower than expected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reference values for Doppler indexes of left ventricular diastolic filling in the elderly.
Alex Sagie,Emelia J. Benjamin,Maurizio Galderisi,Martin G. Larson,Jane C. Evans,Deborah L. Fuller,Brigitta Lehman,Daniel Levy +7 more
TL;DR: There was evidence for a slight progressive decline in indexes of LV inflow with age, and reference values for the various Doppler parameters were generated on the basis of this healthy elderly cohort.
