Journal ArticleDOI

A novel clinical method for quantification of regional left ventricular pressure–strain loop area: a non-invasive index of myocardial work

TL;DR: The novel non-invasive method for regional LV pressure–strain loop area corresponded well with invasive measurements and with directly measured myocardial work and it reflected myocardIAL metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regional myocardial systolic function during acute myocardial ischemia assessed by strain Doppler echocardiography

TL;DR: The new SDE approach might be a more accurate marker than TDE for detecting systolic regional myocardial dysfunction induced by LAD occlusion and reduced velocities in all septal segments during angioplasty.
Journal ArticleDOI

Postsystolic Shortening in Ischemic Myocardium Active Contraction or Passive Recoil

TL;DR: Postsystolic shortening is a relatively nonspecific feature of ischemic myocardium and may occur in dyskinetic segments by an entirely passive mechanism, however, in segments with systolic hypokinesis or akinesis, postsyStolic shortens is a marker of actively contracting myocardia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of Left Ventricular Systolic Function by Tissue Doppler Echocardiography Added Value of Measuring Pre- and Postejection Velocities in Ischemic Myocardium

TL;DR: It is indicated that peak ejection velocity is an inappropriate measure of function in severely ischemic myocardium, and therefore IVC and IVR velocities are better markers of function.
