Dividing patients with heart failure (HF) based solely on ejection fraction (EF) may over simplify the hemodynamic states of these patients. We describe a novel echo‐derived hemodynamic HF model based on flow (stroke volume index [SVI]) and left atrial pressure (E:E′) correlates.

Keywords: atrial pressure; volume index; stroke volume; failure based; heart failure; left atrial
