To determine the value of acoustic quantification (AQ) and Doppler echocardiographic (DE) parameters of diastolic filling 41 patients with arterial hypertension and 29 normotensive persons were investigated. By AQ hypertensive patients demonstrated an increased duration of early filling times, however a reduced early diastolic peak filling rate and decreased percentage of filling in early diastole. In concordance with these findings acceleration time of DE mitral inflow and late diastolic DE filling velocity were increased. In 22 hypertensive patients with non-diagnostic mitral inflow parameters as well as mild increased blood pressure and LV-muscle mass, AQ also demonstrated a significant abnormal diastolic filling pattern. Thus, AQ filling parameters represent a useful diagnostic tool in the assessment of early diastolic LV filling, especially in patients with non-diagnostic DE filling parameters in the early course diastolic dysfunction in arterial hypertension.
