Severe heart failure (NYHA Class IV) is associated with increased left ventricular mass index and short mitral deceleration time in severe aortic valve stenosis.

Left ventricular mass index and DT were independently associated with severe heart failure (NYHA IV). These echo parameters could be helpful to judge whether CHF symptoms are caused by severe AS.
