Key Points

  • This research aims to explore a new technique for assessing myocardial work in patients with hypertension and dilated cardiomyopathy.
  • Utilized non-invasive left ventricular pressure-strain relations to evaluate myocardial work under various loading conditions.

GWI is a promising non-invasive technique for assessing myocardial work and understanding LV remodeling in patients with hypertension and dilated cardiomyopathy.

Abstract

GWI is a potential new technique that allows better understanding of the relationship between LV remodelling and increased wall stress under different loading conditions.
