Predictive value of assessing diastolic strain rate on survival in cardiac amyloidosis patients with preserved ejection fraction.

Predictive value of assessing diastolic strain rate on survival in cardiac amyloidosis patients with preserved ejection fraction.

<h4>Objectives</h4>Since diastolic abnormalities are typical findings of cardiac amyloidosis (CA), we hypothesized that speckle-tracking-imaging (STI) derived longitudinal early diastolic strain rate (LSRdias) could predict outcome in CA patients with preserved left ventricular ejection...
