Popis: An increased acceleration time to ejection time (AT/ET) ratio is associated with increased mortality in patients with aortic stenosis (AS).To identify the factors associated with an increased AT/ET ratio.The relationships between the AT/ET ratio and clinical and Doppler echocardiographic variables of interest in the setting of AS were analysed retrospectively in 1107 patients with AS and preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF). The computed tomography aortic valve calcium (CT-AVC) score was studied in a subgroup of 342 patients.In the univariate analysis, the AT/ET ratio was found to correlate with peak aortic jet velocity (r=0.57; P0.0001), mean pressure gradient (r=0.60; P0.0001), aortic valve area (r=-0.50; P0.0001) and CT-AVC score (r=0.24; P0.0001). The AT/ET ratio had good accuracy in predicting a peak aortic jet velocity≥4 m/s, a mean pressure gradient≥40mmHg and an aortic valve area≤1.0cmThe AT/ET ratio is related to echocardiographic and CT-AVC indices of AS severity. However, multiple intricate factors beyond the haemodynamic and anatomical severity of AS influence the AT/ET ratio, including LV geometry, function and systolic blood pressure. These findings should be considered when assessing the AT/ET ratio in patients with AS and preserved LVEF.
