The E-Wave Deceleration Rate E/DT Outperforms the Tissue Doppler-Derived Index E/e' in Characterizing Lung Remodeling in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

BACKGROUND: Diastolic dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) may result in pulmonary congestion and lung remodeling. We evaluated the usefulness of major diastolic echocardiographic parameters and of the deceleration rate of early transmitral diastolic velocity (E/DT)...
