Association of the Fourth Heart Sound With Increased Left Ventricular End-Diastolic Stiffness

Abstract Background Although the fourth heart sound (S4 ) is thought to be associated with a stiff left ventricle, this association has never been proven. Recently, single-beat estimation of the end-diastolic pressure volume relationship (EDPVR) has been characterized (P = αVβ ), allowing the estima...
