Usefulness of echocardiographic myocardial work in evaluating the microvascular perfusion in STEMI patients after revascularization
Abstract Background Left ventricular myocardial work (MW) assessed by echocardiography has recently been introduced as a new index of global and regional myocardial performance. The presence of microvascular obstruction after revascularization in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) pa...
