Effects of COPD on Left Ventricular and Left Atrial Deformation in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction: Strain Analysis Using Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography

Effects of COPD on Left Ventricular and Left Atrial Deformation in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction: Strain Analysis Using Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography

Myocardial strain analysis, which describes myocardial deformation (shortening or lengthening), provides more detailed information about left ventricular (LV) and atrial (LA) functions than conventional echocardiography and delivers prognostic information. To analyze the effects of COPD on left hear...
