Abstract

Background: We sought to assess the utility of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV-GLS) in predicting mortality in moderate to severe and paradoxical severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients with preserved ejection fraction. Methods and Results: We studied 395 AS patients (70±14 years, 57% men) with aortic valve area 2 evaluated between January to June 2008 (excluding severe other valve disease and LV ejection fraction 2), (b) standard severe (n=161; aortic valve area, ≤1 cm2; mean gradient ≥40 mm Hg), and (c) paradoxical severe (n=141; aortic valve area, ≤1 cm2 and mean gradient 2 increased from 48 to 58; P
