systolic longitudinal function of the left ventricle assessed by speckle tracking in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction
background: echocardiographic evaluations of the longitudinal axis of the left ventricular (lv) function have been used in the diagnosis and assessment of heart failure with normal ejection fraction (hfnef). the evaluation of the global and segmental peak systolic longitudinal strains (pslss) by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (ste) may correlate with conventional echocardiogr...
متن کاملLeft ventricular systolic dysfunction detected by speckle tracking in hypertensive patients with preserved ejection fraction.
INTRODUCTION The spectrum of hypertensive heart disease is wide, and can include left ventricular dysfunction. The development of echocardiographic parameters to improve patient stratification and to identify early adverse changes could be clinically useful. Aim To identify subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in hypertensive subjects with preserved ejection fraction (>55%), identified by g...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of left ventricular volume and ejection fraction using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography.
AIMS Two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) allows measurements of left ventricular (LV) volumes and LV ejection fraction (LVEF) without manual tracings. Our goal was to determine the accuracy of 2DSTE against real-time 3D echocardiography (RT3DE) and against cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. METHODS AND RESULTS In Protocol 1, 2DSTE data in the apical four-chamber v...
متن کاملSubclinical left ventricular dysfunction in preeclamptic women with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction: a 2D speckle-tracking imaging study.
BACKGROUND Patients with preeclampsia are at risk for cardiovascular disease. Changes in cardiac function are subtle in preeclampsia and are difficult to quantify with conventional imaging. Strain measurements using speckle-tracking echocardiography have been used to sensitively quantify abnormalities in other disease settings. METHODS AND RESULTS We evaluated the feasibility and sensitivity ...
