the ratio of early diastolic transmitral flow velocity (E) to early diastolic mitral annular velocity (E(a)) is frequently used to predict an increase in left ventricular filling pressure (LVFP). However, this approach has several limitations. The aim of this study was to test whether additional information is gained by new echocardiographic indexes utilizing strain and strain rate (SR) derived from 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) for the estimation of LVFP.
