Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Velocity Time Integral in Hospitalized Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Abstract

Lower admission LVOT-VTI was an independent determinant of worse clinical outcomes in hospitalized HFpEF patients, indicating that LVOT-VTI on admission might be useful for categorizing a low-flow HFpEF phenotype and risk stratification in hospitalized HFpEF patients.
