Is reduced Global Left Ventricular Myocardial Work Efficiency (<86%) measured within 48 hours of admission associated with worse long-term survival in STEMI patients?
Reduced Global Left Ventricular Myocardial Work Efficiency (<86%) assessed early by echocardiography serves as a prognostic marker for worse long-term survival in patients following a STEMI.
Reduced GLVMWE (<86%) measured by transthoracic echocardiography within 48 hours of admission in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients is associated with worse long-term survival.
Lustosa et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
