Assessment of Left Ventricular Filling Pressure by Applying Artificial Intelligence Algorithms to Left Atrial Speckle-tracking Echocardiography

Description

The goal of this single-center, prospective, observational study is to validate a software package based on an artificial intelligence algorithm for automated non-invasive estimation of LVFP against invasively measured ones by left and right heart catheterization; In addition, the added value of this new automated software to detect increased LVEDP \> 15 mm Hg compared to the current ASE/EACVI algorithm for assessing diastolic dysfunction and longitudinal left atrial strain during the reservoir phase will be evaluated.

Conditions

Heart Failure, Diastolic, Echocardiography

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * ≥ 18 yo,
  • * Signed informed consent to be part of this study,
  • * No pregnancy,
  • * Good acoustic window and patient cooperation to obtain good 2- and 3-dimensional datasets focused on left atrium (LA),
  • * Unwillingness to be part of the study,
  • * Patients with poor 2-dimensional imaging quality in ≥ 1 LA segment or lacking of a discernible R-R interval, which might preclude accurate strain measurements,
  • * Patients with more than mild mitral valve heart disease, aortic regurgitation, left side valvular prosthesis or mitral valve repair, mitral annulus calcification (≥ 5 mm),
  • * Patients with history or presence of atrial fibrillation (AF), supraventricular arrhythmias, ventricular paced rhythm, left bundle branch block (LBBB),
  • * Patients taking diuretics or vasodilators (nitrates) on the day of the examination, which could alter loading conditions.
