Echocardiogram left ventricle fractional shortening measurement
General Details:
Name:
Echocardiogram left ventricle fractional shortening measurement
Steward:
NINDS
Definition:
Measurement of the difference between end-diastolic and end-systolic dimensions of the left ventricle divided by end-diastolic dimension assessed with echocardiography. FS or Fractional Shortening in percentage = EDD minus ESD divided by EDD times 100, where EDD = LV End Diastolic Dimension and ESD = LV End Systolic Dimension.
