- Decision-making in elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis: why are so many denied surgery? (2005, background): “The decrease in LV ejection fraction is a predictor of operative mortality in cardiovascular surgery and in certain series studying elderly with AS.(6,9,15,21) However, the increase in operative risk is most marked in patients who have severe ventricular dysfunction, such as LV ejection fraction ,30”
