Effect of volume reduction on mitral annular diastolic velocities in hemodialysis patients.
The effect of volume reduction on various diastolic Doppler parameters of left ventricular filling was assessed in 13 patients before and after hemodialysis. Volume reduction decreased early diastolic mitral annular velocities to a lesser extent than early diastolic mitral inflow velocities.
