--- Objective: To evaluate the flow propagation velocity of the ventricular filling (Vp) and the ratio E/Vp with echocardiography and show the prognostic implications in patients with ST elevated myocardial infarction. Design: Echocardiography was performed in 43 consecutive patients with ST elevated myocardial infarction admitted en Edgardo Rebagliati Hospital from April to December 2001, evaluation of systolic and diastolic parameters: flow propagation and E wave was correlated with cardiovascular end points three months after discharge. Results: 100% of patients shown some grade of diastolic dysfunction, 27.1% systolic dysfunction by echocardiography. Vp and E/Vp shown significant relation with ejection fraction, clinical left ventricular failure and admission for heart failure until three months after discharge. Left end ventricular diastolic pressure by echocardiography correlated with ejection fraction in that study. Conclusions: The E/Vp ratio is a parameter of diastolic dysfunction which correlates with ejection fraction in patients with myocardial infarction. The Vp and the E/Vp ratio is a prognostic index for heart failure in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
