Two-Dimensional Longitudinal Strain and Strain Rate Imaging for Assessing the Right Ventricular Function in Patients with Mitral Stenosis
Echocardiography, 10/28/09
Ozdemir AO et al. – While the mean global longitudinal strain rates of the entire RV and RVFW were similar between the groups, a significant difference in the mean GLSR of the septum was determined in the patients with MS. A regional analysis demonstrated that MS patients had significantly reduced strain and strain rates in the basal and mid–segments of the septum, whereas only lower strain values in the basal RVFW. RV systolic function evaluated by L2DS analysis in patients with MS has shown decreased global and segmental systolic functions.
