Examples in Context

  1. The left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF ) and the left ventricular peak filling rate ( PFR ) were higher in the treatment group.
  2. Ejection fraction of left ventricle was strongly correlated with peak filling rate and pre - 1 / 3 filling rate in the infarction group. Peak filling rate did not correlate with age and heart rate.
  3. The patients'left ventricular ejection fraction ( EF ) and the peak filling rate ( PFR ) were decreased, and the time of peak filling rate ( TPFR ) was prolonged.
  4. The parameters were EDV ( end diastolic volume ), ESV ( end systolic volume ), EF ( ejection fraction ), PER ( peak ejection rate ) and PFR ( peak filling rate ).
  5. Materials and Methods : With cardiac magnetic resonance imaging ( CMRI ) as a reference, RT-3DE was undertaken in 31 healthy volunteers with left ventricular function parameters assessed, such as left ventricular peak ejection rate ( PER ) and peak filling rate ( PFR ).
