ESE parameters and normal values
| Variables | Meaning | Normal values |
|---|---|---|
| Δ LVEF | Contractile reserve | > 5% |
| ΔGLS | Contractile reserve | > 2% |
| ΔSV | Contractile reserve | > 20% |
| Peak E/e’ | Elevated LV filling pressure during stress | > 15 |
| Peak PAPs | Maximal pulmonary systolic pressure during stress | > 60 mmHg |
| ΔEROA | Changes in mitral regurgitation severity during time | < 10 mm3 |
| ΔTransmitral MPG | Changes in transmitral pressure gradient during stress | < 15 mmHg |
| ΔTransaortic MPG | Changes in transaortic pressure gradient during stress | < 20 mmHg |
| LVOT Maximal Peak Gradient | In case of LVOT obstruction it reflects pathological | < 50 mmHg – low prognostic impact |
LVEF Left ventricular ejection fraction, GLS Global longitudinal strain, SV Stroke volume, EROA Effective regurgitant orifice area, MPG Mean pressure gradient, LVOT Left ventricular output tract
