6.4.3 Study Tool Operations
6.4.3.1 Left Ventricular Function
This group of studies is to estimates the Left Ventricular (LV) diastolic and systolic capabilities by a
series of clinical indices measured on B or M image. Except for calculating left ventricular volume
and end diastole and end systole, they may calculate the following indices (not all indices are
calculated in every study, see Study Results table in each study for reference).
Result Descriptions Formulae
SV Stroke Volume SV(ml) = EDV(ml)-ESV(ml)
CO Cardiac Output CO(l/min) = SV(ml)×HR(bpm)/ 1000
EF Ejection Fraction EF(No unit) = SV(ml)/ EDV(ml)
SI SV Index SI(No unit) = SV(ml)/ Body Surface Area (m
