F Fortuni, SC Butcher, F van der Kley… - Journal of the American …, 2021 - Elsevier
Background Left ventricular myocardial work (LVMW) is a novel method to assess left
ventricular (LV) function using pressure-strain loops that takes into consideration LV
afterload. The estimation of LV afterload in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) may be
challenging, and no study so far has investigated LVMW in this setting. The aim of this study
was to develop a method to calculate LVMW in patients with severe AS and to analyze its
relationship with heart failure symptoms. Methods Indices of LVMW were calculated in 120 …
