Left ventricular torsional dynamics post exercise for LV diastolic function assessment
2014
Aims
2D speckle tracking echocardiography allows for assessment of left ventricular (LV) torsional deformation as a composite function of the radial, longitudinal and circumferential fibres. We test the hypothesis that post-exercise LV torsional dynamics are more sensitive markers for myocardial dysfunction than resting measures, and better predictors for exercise capacity compared to post-exercise LV diastolic filling pressure (E/e’).
