At a Glance
| Category | Detail |
|---|---|
| Condition | Diastolic Dysfunction |
| Key Mechanisms | Evaluation of diastolic function using echocardiography |
| Target Population | Adults undergoing transthoracic echocardiograms |
| Care Setting | Echocardiography laboratories |
Key Highlights
- 20.1% of echocardiograms received different diastolic function grades under 2025 guidelines
- 14.0% of studies were upgraded in diastolic dysfunction grading
- 73.8% classified as normal diastolic function under 2025 guidelines
- Older age, female sex, and higher left ventricular systolic function associated with increased grading
- Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction increased from 11.9% to 15.7% under new criteria
Guideline-Based Recommendations
Diagnosis
- Apply 2025 ASE diastolic function grading algorithm for assessment
Management
- Consider demographic and clinical characteristics in grading
Monitoring & Follow-up
