Why the study?
Does high global LV load predict major cardiovascular and aortic valve events in patients with asymptomatic mild-moderate aortic stenosis?
Does high global LV load predict major cardiovascular and aortic valve events in patients with asymptomatic mild-moderate aortic stenosis?
In patients with asymptomatic mild-moderate aortic stenosis, high global LV load (Zva >5 mm Hg/ml/m2) provides independent prognostic information for major cardiovascular and aortic valve events.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May refine prognostication in asymptomatic mild-moderate aortic stenosis; leaves open whether it should guide intervention timing.
Rieck et al. (2012) studied this question.
