Abstract

Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (2DTTE) has been used to assess increased left-sided filling pressures and left ventricular (LV) diastolic heart failure in patients with normal or near-normal systolic function. The echo or Doppler parameters used to assess left sided filling pressures in patients with normal or near normal LV ejection fraction as well as caveats and pitfalls in using them are summarized in this chapter. The reliability of these findings further increases when other clinical and echocardiographic findings suggest high left-sided filling pressures.
