Abstract
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is associated with slowing of LV relaxation and a decrease in LV chamber compliance. This impairment of function leads to changes in filling velocities as measured by pulsed wave Doppler echocardiography in the pulmonary veins and across the mitral valve, and in intraventricular flow propagation velocity as measured by color M-mode Doppler. This paper explores some of the physiology of LV filling in a clinical context.
