The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of Doppler-derived modal and maximum velocity and peak and mean acceleration of ascending aortic blood for the assessment of left ventricular systolic function. Studies were performed in six anesthetized open, chest dogs. Doppler-derived modal velocity, maximum velocity, and peak and mean acceleration were compared with left ventricular dP/dt, maximum aortic blood flow, and rate of blood flow, measured with an electromagnetic flow probe under varying, motr6pic states. Maximum Doppler velocity showed better correlation (r = 0.94, y = 0.34 + 3.95) with maximum aortic blood flow than the modal velocity (r = 0.85, y = 1.49 + 3.85x). Peak acceleration also correlated better with the rate of blood flow (r = 0.92, y = 12.3 + 4.92x) than the mean acceleration (r = 0.83, y = 12.2 + 4.27x). Modal and maximum velocity and mean and peak acceleration correlated well with left ventricular dP/dt. We conclude that peak modal and peak maximum velocity and peak and mean acceleration are accurate measurements of left ventricular function. Maximum velocity and peak acceleration are more accurate than modal velocity and mean acceleration. |
