EPSS 0.45 ± 0.31 0.34 ± 0.22 2.11 0.04*

Values are mean ± SD. SV: stroke volume; LVEF: Left ventricular ejection fraction; LVFS: left ventricular fractional shortening; DT: deceleration time; IVRT: isovolumic relaxation time. E: early diastolic filling; A: atrial contraction; E/A: ratio of early (E) to late (A) diastolic filling velocities in the mitral inflow; EPSS: endpoint septal separation. *p < 0.05 is statistically significant.
