Comparison of the prognostic values of three calculation methods for echocardiographic relative wall thickness in acute decompensated heart failure
PURPOSE: Left ventricular (LV) wall thickness can be measured at the posterior wall (PW) and the intraventricular septum (IVS) in a parasternal long axis view by transthoracic echocardiography. Thus, there are three methods to calculate relative wall thickness as follows: RWT(PW) = 2 × PWth/LVDd; RW...
