Strain rate imaging in CRT candidates

myocardial strain and strain rate imaging: comparison between doppler derived strain imaging and speckle tracking echocardiography

Recent advances in echocardiography: strain and strain rate imaging

Deformation imaging by echocardiography is a well-established research tool which has been gaining interest from clinical cardiologists since the introduction of speckle tracking. Post-processing of echo images to analyze deformation has become readily available at the fingertips of the user. New parameters such as global longitudinal strain have been shown to provide added diagnostic value, an...

CRT-D or CRT-P in CRT-indicated patients?

HRV parameters and 6-minute walking test, functional capacity, right ventricular systolic function, BNP and hs-troponin-I levels. Most common cause of death in these patients is arrhythmia, and autonomic dysfunction may be triggering factor (2). HRV parameters are now being used for prognostic evaluation in PAH patients. There are also studies suggesting HRV reduction may be associated with mor...

myocardial deformation indices in patients with significant aortic regurgitation: a strain rate imaging study

conclusions our results demonstrated the ability of pw-tdi and s/sr modalities in detection of the early subclinical abnormalities in asymptomatic patients with significant chronic ar. results ar group had significantly increased lv end systolic and end diastolic volumes, interventricular septum and posterior wall thickness compared to controls. in ar, sm and em of septal wall, sm of lateral wa...
