Prognostic value of temporal patterns of global longitudinal strain in patients with chronic heart failure
Department of Computer Science, University of Verona, Italy
Background: We investigated whether repeatedly measured global longitudinal strain (GLS) has incremental prognostic value over repeatedly measured left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and a single ‘baseline’ GLS value, in chronic heart failure (HF) patients.
