Why the study?
The role of left atrial function in the long-term prognosis of STEMI remains unclear.
Does the combination of left atrial reservoir strain and global longitudinal strain predict long-term prognosis in patients with ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction?
Does the combination of left atrial reservoir strain and global longitudinal strain predict long-term prognosis in patients with ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction?
Left atrial reservoir strain combined with global longitudinal strain immediately after STEMI onset serves as a significant predictor of poor long-term prognosis.
BACKGROUND: The role of left atrial (LA) function in the long-term prognosis of ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) is still unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS: =126.3, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: LA reservoir strain immediately after STEMI onset was a significant predictor of poor prognosis in patients, especially when combined with GLS.
