Simultaneous echocardiography and micromanometer pressure measurements provide detailed insights into left ventricular systolic function, revealing a close correlation between peak LV dP/dt and peak rate of dimension reduction.

Supports echocardiographic dimension reduction rate as LV dP/dt surrogate; leaves open validation in severe mitral regurgitation.
Gibson et al. (1976) studied this question.
