The use of the systolic time interval for predicting left ventricular ejection fraction ischemic heart disease. 1977

R H Swatzell, and W H Bancroft, and J C Baldone, and M S Tucker

A large series of 306 patients with ischemic heart disease was studied with automated systolic time intervals and left ventricular ejection fraction as determined by the angiocardiographic method. It was found the pre-ejection period, left ventricular ejection time, delta values, and PEP/LVET ratio all were related to the ejection fraction. However, in all instances the correlation was too low and the scatter of the data was too large to warrant the use of the systolic time intervals for predicting left ventricular function as indicated by the ejection fraction.
