Chronic severe aortic regurgitation will eventually result in left ventricular fibrosis and [...]
As the ventricle dilates further, wall tension and filling pressure rise
Ejection fraction falls, reducing stroke volume and forward output
Irreversible structural changes may occur prior to the development of symptoms
-one of the insidious features of regurgitation is that by the time sx's occur, you're already in big trouble
Answer
systolic dysfunction
