Non-invasive global myocardial work index as a new surrogate of ventricular-arterial coupling in hypertensive patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction

ObjectiveAs a new method of left ventricular-arterial coupling (VAC), the non-invasive myocardial work index (MWI) may provide more useful information than the classical methods of arterial elastance/left ventricular (LV) elastance index (the ratio of effective arterial elastance (Ea) over end-systo...
