6098The role of diastolic function in risk stratification of patients with moderate aortic stenosis

Background Currently data on the risk stratification of patients with moderate aortic stenosis (AS) are very limited. Method Patients diagnosed with moderate AS in 2012 (aortic valve area [AVA]: >1 and ≤1.5cm2) were identified. Patients were stratifying by LV diastolic function (normal vs high filling pressure), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≥50 vs <50%) and stroke volume index (SVI ≥35 vs <35 ml/m2). High filling pressure...
