Note: Left ventricular mass (LVM), interventricular septum thickness at end diastole (IVSd), thickness of posterior wall of the left ventricle at end diastole (LVPWd), left ventricular dimension at end diastole (LVEDD) and end systole (LVESD). For calculation of the Z score please use the formula, Weight, Z score = [(LVM/M(weight))L(weight) ‒ 1]/(L(weight)xS(weight)). LMS corresponds to lambda (L), mu (M), and sigma (S) values respectively.
