Echocardiographic estimation of left ventricular filling pressures in heart transplant recipients
Abstract Background Echocardiographic estimation of left ventricular filling pressure in heart transplant (HTx) recipients is challenging. The ability of echocardiography to detect elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) in HTx patients was assessed in this study. Results This descr...
