Detection of subclinical LV dysfunction by tissue Doppler imaging.
Echocardiography is a well-established clinical tool for the assessment of myocardial function. However, in subclinical diseases, the routinely used echocardiographic parameters such as left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening are not sensitive enough to detect myocardial dysfunction. We have learned over the past years that other echocardiographic techniques such ...
متن کاملassessment of subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic mitral regurgitation using torsional parameters described by tissue doppler imaging
background: left ventricular (lv) twist is due to oppositely directed apical and basal rotation and has been proposed as a sensitive marker of lv function. we sought to assess the impact of chronic pure mitral regurgitation (mr) on the torsional mechanics of the left human ventricle using tissue doppler imaging. methods: nineteen severe mr patients with a normal lv ejection fraction and 16 non-...
متن کاملSubclinical LV Dysfunction Detection Using Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Hypertensive Patients with Preserved LV Ejection Fraction
BACKGROUND Early detection of subclinical left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction in hypertensive patients is important for the prevention of progression of hypertensive heart disease. METHODS We studied 60 hypertensive patients (age ranged from 21 to 49 years, the duration of hypertension ranged from 1 to 18 years) and 30 healthy controls, all had preserved left ventricular ejection fract...

متن کاملSpeckle-Tracking and Tissue-Doppler Stress Echocardiography in Arterial Hypertension: A Sensitive Tool for Detection of Subclinical LV Impairment
Early diagnosis of cardiac alterations in hypertensive heart disease is still challenging. Since such patients might have depressed global LV systolic strain or strain rate when EF is still normal, speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) and tissue-Doppler imaging (TDI) combined with stress echocardiography might improve early diagnosis of cardiac alterations. In this prospective study standard...
