Baseline Longitudinal Strain Predicts Recovery of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Hospitalized Patients With Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy

Background Heart failure (HF) with “recovered” ejection fraction (HFrecEF) is an emerging phenotype, but no tools exist to predict ejection fraction (EF) recovery in acute HF. We hypothesized that indices of baseline cardiac structure and function predict HFrecEF in nonischemic cardiomyopathy and re...
