Assessment of Myocardial Mechanics in Acute Rheumatic Fever Using Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography
Background: This study aims to evaluate the role of speckle-tracking echocardiography to identify myocardial deformation in acute rheumatic fever. Methods: Twenty-seven patients and 27 healthy children were prospectively evaluated. The patient group was divided into 2 subgroups based on echocardiog...
