Chronic Pressure-Overload Hypertrophy Attenuates Vortex Formation Time in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis and Preserved Left Ventricular Systolic Function Undergoing Aortic Valve Replacement
Objective: Transmitral blood flow produces a vortex ring that enhances the hydraulic efficiency of early left ventricular (LV) filling. The effect of pressure-overload hypertrophy on the duration of LV vortex ring formation (vortex formation time [VFT]) is unknown. The current investigation tested the hypothesis that chronic LV pressure-overload hypertrophy produced by severe aortic stenosis (AS) reduces VFT in patients with preserved LV systolic function undergoing aortic valve replacement.Design: Observational study.Setting: Veterans Affairs Medical Center.Participants: After the Institutional Review Board's approval, 8 ...
