Researchers from Umea University report recent findings in echocardiography.(Report)

Biotech Week | August 6, 2008 | Copyright

According to recent research from Umea, Sweden, " Peak left ventricular (LV) relaxation normally precedes peak filling (E), which supports the hypothesis that LV suction contributes to early-diastolic filling. The significance of similar temporal discordance in late diastole has previously not been studied."

"We describe the time relationships between mitral annular motion and LV filling in early and late diastole and examine the effect of normal ageing on these time intervals. Methods and results A total of 128 healthy subjects aged 25-88 years were studied. ...
