Figure 2. Echocardiographic Changes after 3 Months of LVAD Unloading Therapy.

Figure 2

This graphic depicts LV and RV changes after 3 months of LVAD support, compared to baseline assessment performed after medical unloading therapy. LVEDD reference range is 3.9 to 5.3 cm for women and 4.2 to 5.9 cm for men. RV diameter reference ranges are 2.0 to 2.8 cm at the base and 2.7 to 3.3 cm at mid-RV. LV, left ventricle; LVEDD, left ventricular end diastolic dimension; MR, mitral regurgitation; RV, right ventricle; TR, tricuspid regurgitation. *p<0.0001
