Abstract: AIM: To investigate the correlation between the left ventricular filling type and geometry modality and functional change of the left ventricle in patients with hypertension.METHODS: Systolic function indexes (FS and EF) and diastolic function indexes (E, A, EAT, EDT, E A, IVRT) in 120 patients with hypertension were measured by two dimensional ultrasonography (2-DUS) and M-mode and Doppler ultrasound.RESULTS: A rate of 83.5% in patients with hypertension appeared assured plump and configuration changes of left ventricle, and a rate of 84%in patients with hypertension appeared abnormal left ventricular filling function.The morphologic indexes were significantly different clearly in different left ventricular filling types, and the filling indexes were also significantly different in diferent left ventricular shapes.CONCLUSION: IVRT is a more important index than other factors to decide the left ventricular filling function.LVMI plays more important role than other factors in the left ventricular filling function.

Key words: echocardiography, hypertension, left ventricular filling type, geometry modality of the left ventricleconfiguration
