Figure 1 Association among hemodynamic indices of aortic stenosis. Results of the cluster analysis of variables in Group B show an initial split into two groups, flow-corrected and non–flow-corrected indices, with a fair correlation between them (rho2 = 0.37). Stroke work loss closely correlates with {Delta}P, as expected from its calculation formula. Also, there was a close association between AVA and AVR.
