Left ventricular diastolic function is a critical determinant of cardiac performance, requiring the ability to fill without elevated left atrial pressure even during stress.
n order for the left ventricle (LV) to function as an effective pump, it must not only be able to empty but also to fill without requiring an elevated left atrial pressure.Furthermore, the stroke volume must be able to increase in response to stress, such as exercise, without much increase in left atrial pressure.Thus, LV diastolic function is an important determinant of cardiac performance.
