Widely spread methods of diagnostics of early, including latent, heart failure are based mainly on systolic, pump function indices. Limited spread of diastolic myocardial function studies is probably due to the absence of clear criteria for evaluation of existing diastolic process parameters and their comparison with the generally accepted division of heart failure into stages.
