FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for diagnostics of latent diastolic cardiac decompensation. Echocardiographic examination is performed with Doppler sonography, the sampling is made with isometric load. Maximum speed E of transmitral blood flow, maximum speed é of diastolic left ventricular lifting in early end diastole are measured via Doppler examination. Calculating the ratio of E/é. When E/é>13 the latent diastolic cardiac decompensation is determined.
EFFECT: method provides higher accuracy and specificity of diagnosing latent diastolic cardiac decompensation due to detection of left ventricular filling pressure increase under isometric load.
