Table 3.

Detections of LVSD in Patients with QRS Duration < 120 ms N = 40 Positive, Negative N = 78

Acoustic Cardiographic Parameter AUC Sensitivity at 90% Specificity Additional LVSD Patients Detected*
S3 Strength 0.65 33% (4.4) 13 (28%)
% EMAT 0.79 38% (12.5) 15 (33%)
QRSdur* Qrint* S3Strength*%EMAT 0.83 70% (166,585) 28 (61%)

*Compared to the LVSD patients detected in the entire population by QRS Duration >120 ms.

AUC = area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; EMAT = electromechanical activation time; LVSD = left ventricular systolic dysfunction.
