index of diastolic function
Flow propagation velocity is not a simple index of diastolic function in early filling. A comparative study of early diastolic strain rate and strain rate propagation, flow and flow propagation in normal and reduced diastolic function
... Measurements of propagation velocities have a low preci- sion, as shown by the wide limits of agreements, and the variability given in table 3. This may account for the mod- erate strength of the correlation found. The ...
