Quantitative evaluation of myocardial layer-specific strain using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography in septic patients

Abstract Background Although global longitudinal strain (GLS) is proven to be reduced and associated with adverse outcomes in septic patients, it has not been elucidated whether or not layer-specific strains are reduced. We aimed to explore the layer-specific strains of left ventricular (LV) for ass...
