Severity of diastolic dysfunction predicts myocardial infarction
Our data demonstrate that the risk of MI is significantly increased in the presence of DD, with higher risk at higher grades of DD. The increased risk associated with grade III DD is comparable to that from a prior history of percutaneous coronary intervention. These findings suggest that the severity of DD may be a useful tool in stratifying patients for risk of MI.
