Global longitudinal strain: a useful everyday measurement?
Herceptin (Trastuzumab) is a widely used and effective drug for the treatment of Her2+ breast cancer but its cardiotoxic side effects require regular monitoring by echocardiography. A 10% reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction can lead to suspension of treatment and therefore has significant implications for patient prognosis in terms of cardiac and cancer outcomes. Assessment of LV fu...

متن کاملInformation-Quality Based LV-Grid-Monitoring Framework and Its Application to Power-Quality Control
The integration of unpredictable renewable energy sources into the low voltage (LV) power grid results in new challenges when it comes to ensuring power quality in the power grid. Addressing this problem requires control of not only the secondary substation but also control of flexible assets inside the LV grid. In this paper we investigate how the flexibility information of such assets can be ...
متن کاملEvaluation of strain and strain rate parameters using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography in patients with coronary artery disease (Research Article)
The study aimed was to measure left ventricular (LV) strain using speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) for assessment of LV function. Eighty-two subjects (mean age 57±9 years) with suspected chest pain underwent two-dimensional (2D)-echocardiography before coronary angiography. Conventional echocardiographic parameters were used for the assessment of LV function. Longitudinal strain and its ...
متن کاملLongitudinal Strain
SEE PAGE 1351 F or decades, echocardiography has proved to be a well-established noninvasive imaging modality for bedside assessment of global left ventricular (LV) function in patients with heart failure (HF). The need for objective quantification of systolic LV pump function for prognostic purposes has led to the development of numerous echocardiographic indexes. LV ejection fraction (EF) is ...
