Does the assessment of post-systolic shortening (PSS) improve the detection of acute ischaemia and ischaemic memory compared to conventional echocardiographic parameters?
Post-systolic shortening assessed by advanced echocardiography is a superior marker for detecting acute myocardial ischaemia and ischaemic memory compared to conventional parameters.
Asanuma et al. (2015) studied this question.
