Abbreviations: LVDs = LV end-systolic diameter; LVDd =LV end‐diastolic
diameter; IVST = thickness of the interventricular septum; PWTd =
end‐diastolic thickness of left ventricular posterior wall; E/A = ratio
of peak early and late diastolic velocities; LAVImax = left atrial
maximum volume index; Sept e’= septal mitral annular early-diastolic
velocity; Lat e’=lateral mitral annular early-diastolic velocity; E/mean
e’ = ratio of peak early diastolic velocities and septal and lateral
early (e’) mitral annular diastolic tissue velocities.
