3D & Speckle Tracking Together as a Marker for Early Outcome in Cardiac Surgery

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients presenting with Left Ventricle (LV) dysfunction undergoing cardiac surgery are at increased risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality. LV dysfunction has been reported as an independent predictor of operative mortality in patients undergoing Cardiac surgery. It also often leads to low cardiac output states with many of these patients requiring inotropic or mechanical support and vasopressors for hours to days after surgery. Speckle tracking when combined with three dimensional (3D) imaging techniques might prove to be a more sensitive marker for ventricular dysfunction. The present study investigates early outcomes in a consecutive series of patients with LV dysfunction undergoing cardiac surgery
