Abstract
AEF index in neonatal period is augmented and comparable with the values in adult population that could be explained by the specific pattern of slow ventricular relaxation in newborn infants. Complex aspects of diastolic function in newborn infants could be assessed beyond a simple E to A ratio by providing an estimate of normal values for AEF in this age group.
